Hacker" Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hello. I'm looking to start work in the next half-year to year on a filesystem with LDAP and then maybe later someSQL backing. Where's a good place to start? I'm going to have a look at NFS, because I think I might be able to use its interface into the kernel (I'm planning on making it a userspace daemon). Maybe autofs, although I think that's a different interface. Any recommendations on what I should read before delving in? Books, articles, web sites, code bases are all fair game. Thanks! -Joseph -- "We're moving toward a world where all the capabilities of the Internet are reprocessed through a single filter, with Microsoft's business plan behind it."
