Hi. We are contemplating replacing our current installation of AMD (automounter) over NFS with Coda; under Linux 2.4. A couple of questions, which I couldn't get answers to from the documentation (or due to my lack of reading skills ;-), has arisen: - If a client disconnects from the server because it cannot reach the server, will it reconnect by itself when it can reach it? - Is there a way to say: "Ok, if you cannot reach the server, propagate the error to the user instead of going to disconnected-mode." - How stable is the code? We are using 5.3.19 right now and it seems to be working fine but I can't really tell until we've put it through some heavy testing. Would you recommend using Coda in a production environment? Is there somebody out there using Coda in a production environment? - Is there a resource somewhere that lists the current pros/cons of Coda? Perhaps in the context of NFS/AMD or other distributed solutions. Thanks for any help! :-) PS. Clicking on the FAQ-link on http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/index.html tells me that the server is refusing my connection. -- Erik Enge eenge_at_prium.net Software Engineer, 770-814-7164 Professional Reviews Inc.
