Coda has several advantages 1.9 +over NFS: support for disconnected operation (e.g. for laptops), read/write 1.10 +server replication, security model for authentication and encryption, 1.11 +persistent client caches and write back caching. 1.12 + 1.13 +If you use this module, your Linux box will be able to act as a Coda *client*. 1.14 +You will need user level code as well, both for the client and server. Servers 1.15 +are currently user level, i.e. they need no kernel support. Please read Linux 1.16 +Kernel Documentation filesystems/coda.txt and check out the Coda home page 1.17 +<http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/>.
