Dunno if anyone's seen this... http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/tiger/ Among other things, 10.4 Server will feature a "Mobile Home Directories" system that sounds a LOT like coda: "With Mobile Home Directories in Mac OS X Server v10.4, you can centrally manage the home directories of your portable Mac clients and yet allow each user online and offline access from the office and the road. When a user goes offline, her home directory goes with her, so she can continue to work just as she would back at the office. In addition, her public folder remains accessible to the network while well as see her public files. When she reconnects her iBook or PowerBook to the network, Mac OS X automatically syncs up the home directory with the one on the server. You have the best of both worlds and they have full desktop mobility." Anyone have any inside info on this? Is Apple using code borrowed from Coda or AFS, or is this a new capability of AFP/Appletalk? -CReceived on 2004-06-30 13:39:25
