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