NAME

     coda — Coda Distributed File System

SYNOPSIS

     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel
     configuration file:

           options CODA

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in
     loader.conf(5):

           coda_load="YES"

     To load as a kernel loadable module after boot:

           kldload coda

DESCRIPTION

     The coda kernel module allows the experimental, third-party Coda distributed file system
     client to be used with FreeBSD.  The module allows the userspace Coda client daemon, Venus,
     to present the Coda distributed file system namespace via the local /coda file system
     mountpoint via the /dev/cfs0 special device.

     To use Coda, the Coda client software package must also be installed; more information on
     Coda may be found in the Coda documentation distributed with that package.

SEE ALSO

     loader.conf(5), kldload(8)

HISTORY

     Support for coda first appeared in FreeBSD 3.0.

BUGS

     The Coda distributed file system is considered experimental, and production deployment
     should occur only after careful consideration of the risks of deploying experimental
     software.
