Is there a way to support some other filesystem like NFS/SHFS in userspace? My kernel just does not support anything else but ext filesytems....


RE: Alternative to NFS - rbtux - 01-24-2008 06:44 PM

maybe fuse? but i don't know much about that... I only read about it in ix or somth some time ago...

Cool, I forgot about that. And Etch has packages for fuse:

Code:
libfuse-dev - Filesystem in USErspace (development files)
libfuse-perl - Write filesystems in Perl using FUSE
libfuse2 - Filesystem in USErspace library
libfusefs-ruby - library to easily define a filesystem in Ruby using fuse
libfusefs-ruby1.8 - library to easily define a filesystem in Ruby using fuse

To use fuse you must have fuse support in the kernel which Virtuozzo does not have. It will be present in the new 4.0 version:

Code:
FUSE Support – Filesystem in a user space support will allow many different filespaces to run in
the user space. Filesystems include NFS, samba mounts, encrypted filesystems, etc.


Is there anything else I could try?

Could SAMBA work?

smbfs is also kernel relatet.... take a look if you have support for it in the kernel...

Can't you build your own kernel? (I don't know virtuozzo)
