Subject: [Q] File server vs. kfs process
Date: Sun, 14 Jan 1996 12:29:53 -0500

Can someone explain what are the differences in term of functionality
and performances between a dedicated file server and a kfs process on
a stand alone PC?

What I know or suspect:
file server		stand-alone
-----------------------------------------
fs(8) commands		kfscmd(8) commands
worm file system	no worm file system
scsi only		scsi or ide
anonymous & permanent	reboot to change the user using the console
