Readme is here: http://www.sciencething.org/geekthings/UVFS_README.html Yet another one. The author acknowledges userfs, PODFUK and fuse as prior-art, but was disatisfied with them. Requires a kernel module to communicate with the user space driver. The code has a simplistic array of request slots, no continuations or other fancy implementation features. Currently it is four entries. The README brings up a possible deadlock in the Linux VFS layer relating to one vfs calling rmdir on another vfs and has a workaround. The README also complains about hard links. I think they are a good thing, but he seems quite vehemently against them. Trammell -- -----|----- hu...@sw... H 240-476-1373 *>=====[]L\ Tra...@ce...
