Description : VirtualFS is a framework and a set of pseudo file system drivers. It provides one missing link to ease Linux acceptance as a desktop workstation.
VirtualFS is a framework and a set of pseudo file system drivers. It
provides one missing link to ease Linux acceptance as a desktop
workstation. VirtualFS fix few problems here and there, but goes
further. It does:
* Simplified access to floppies, cdroms and sound card, even over the
network (transparently tied to the X display). No mounting/Unmounting
needed.
* Personal auto-mounter for network resources.
* More flexible access control scheme (Using Access Control Lists, ACL for
short) for files and directory. This is AclFS
* File systems against all odds: Using file systems like services even
without network file system server. This is LiteFS
* Mapping of common services to file-system semantic (ftpFS).
VirtualFS originally started as the NetAudio project. While the project
preserves NetAudio's original features, it offers new and not so related
functionalities.
Note: NetAudio was renamed RemAudio as another product was already using
that name.
