Coda has several advantages over NFS: support for 108c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci disconnected operation (e.g. for laptops), read/write server 118c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci replication, security model for authentication and encryption, 128c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci persistent client caches and write back caching. 138c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci 148c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci If you say Y here, your Linux box will be able to act as a Coda 158c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci *client*. You will need user level code as well, both for the 168c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci client and server. Servers are currently user level, i.e. they need 178c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci no kernel support. Please read 188c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci <file:Documentation/filesystems/coda.rst> and check out the Coda 198c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci home page <http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/>. 208c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci 218c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci To compile the coda client support as a module, choose M here: the 228c2ecf20Sopenharmony_ci module will be called coda. 23
