  60. This is the journaling version of the Second extended file system
  61. (often called ext3), the de facto standard Linux file system
  62. (method to organize files on a storage device) for hard disks.
  63. The journaling code included in this driver means you do not have
  64. to run e2fsck (file system checker) on your file systems after a
  65. crash. The journal keeps track of any changes that were being made
  66. at the time the system crashed, and can ensure that your file system
  67. is consistent without the need for a lengthy check.
  68. Other than adding the journal to the file system, the on-disk format
  69. of ext3 is identical to ext2. It is possible to freely switch
  70. between using the ext3 driver and the ext2 driver, as long as the
  71. file system has been cleanly unmounted, or e2fsck is run on the file
  72. system.
  73. To add a journal on an existing ext2 file system or change the
  74. behavior of ext3 file systems, you can use the tune2fs utility ("man
  75. tune2fs"). To modify attributes of files and directories on ext3
  76. file systems, use chattr ("man chattr"). You need to be using
  77. e2fsprogs version 1.20 or later in order to create ext3 journals
  78. (available at <http://sourceforge.net/projects/e2fsprogs/>).

  1435. or later, that optionally can handle more POSIX like (rather

  1437. support for POSIX ACLs (getfacl and setfacl) to servers
  1438. (such as Samba 3.10 and later) which can negotiate

  1446. (multipage writebehind performance improvements) and directory
  1447. change notification ie fcntl(F_DNOTIFY) as well as some security
  1448. improvements. Some also depend on setting at runtime the

  1465. help
  1466. NCP (NetWare Core Protocol) is a protocol that runs over IPX and is
  1467. used by Novell NetWare clients to talk to file servers. It is to
  1468. IPX what NFS is to TCP/IP, if that helps. Saying Y here allows you
  1469. to mount NetWare file server volumes and to access them just like
  1470. any other Unix directory. For details, please read the file
  1471. <file:Documentation/filesystems/ncpfs.txt> in the kernel source and
  1472. the IPX-HOWTO from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
  1473. You do not have to say Y here if you want your Linux box to act as a
  1474. file *server* for Novell NetWare clients.
  1475. General information about how to connect Linux, Windows machines and
  1476. Macs is on the WWW at <http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html>.
  1477. To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
  1478. ncpfs. Say N unless you are connected to a Novell network.

  1482. depends on INET
  1483. help
  1484. Coda is an advanced network file system, similar to NFS in that it
  1485. enables you to mount file systems of a remote server and access them
  1486. with regular Unix commands as if they were sitting on your hard
  1487. disk. Coda has several advantages over NFS: support for
  1488. disconnected operation (e.g. for laptops), read/write server
  1489. replication, security model for authentication and encryption,
  1490. persistent client caches and write back caching.
  1491. If you say Y here, your Linux box will be able to act as a Coda
  1492. *client*. You will need user level code as well, both for the
  1493. client and server. Servers are currently user level, i.e. they need
  1494. no kernel support. Please read
  1495. <file:Documentation/filesystems/coda.txt> and check out the Coda
  1496. home page <http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/>.
  1497. To compile the coda client support as a module, choose M here: the
  1498. module will be called coda.

  1503. A new kernel-userspace API had to be introduced for Coda v6.0
  1504. to support larger 128-bit file identifiers as needed by the
  1505. new realms implementation.
  1506. However this new API is not backward compatible with older
  1507. clients. If you really need to run the old Coda userspace
  1508. cache manager then say Y.
