The 4.4BSD implementation of the Network File System (NFS)\** is

|
|
other NFS Version 2 Protocol (RFC1094) implementations but also
|
||
|
|
allows use of an alternate protocol that is hoped to provide better
|
||
|
|
performance in certain environments.
|
||
|
|
This paper will informally discuss these various protocol features and
|
||
|
|
their use.
|
||
|
|
There is a brief overview of the implementation followed
|
||
|
|
by several sections on various problem areas related to NFS
|
||
|
|
and some hints on how to deal with them.

Not Quite NFS (NQNFS) is an NFS like protocol designed to maintain full cache
|
||
|
|
consistency between clients in a crash tolerant manner. It is an adaptation
|
||
|
|
of the NFS protocol such that the server supports both NFS
|
||
|
|
and NQNFS clients while maintaining full consistency between the server and
|
||
|
|
NQNFS clients.
|
||
|
|
It borrows heavily from work done on Spritely-NFS [Srinivasan89], but uses
|
||
|
|
Leases [Gray89] to avoid the need to recover server state information
|
||
|
|
after a crash.
