| | Distributed File System |
 | | The Microsoft® Distributed File System (Dfs) is a network server component that makes it easier for you to find and manage data on your network. | | | Microsoft Distributed File System does for servers and shares what file systems do for hard disks. | | | File systems provide uniform named access to collections of sectors on disks; Dfs provides a uniform naming convention and mapping for collections of servers, shares, and files. |

| | ZipGenius 'ZipGenius' is a freeware file archiver designed for Microsoft Windows users, developed by M.Dev Software. | | | It is used widely to archive and unarchive files, which means to accumulate a large collection of files into a single archive file (packer), while preserving file system information such as user and group permissions, dates, and directory structures. | | | LZX was publicly released as an Amiga file archiver in 1995, while the authors were studying at the University of Waterloo in Canada. |

| | distributed file system - a Whatis.com definition - see also: DFS |
| | Sun Microsystems' Network File System (NFS), Novell NetWare, Microsoft's Distributed File System, and IBM/Transarc's DFS are some examples of distributed file systems. | | | Ideally, a distributed file system organizes file and directory services of individual servers into a global directory in such a way that remote data access is not location-specific but is identical from any client. | | | Distributed file systems typically use file or database replication (distributing copies of data on multiple servers) to protect against data access failures. |

| | Distributed file systems for storage may be just the beginning. | | | A variety of vendors are developing distributed file systems for storage. | | | For DFS to interplay effectively with the various file systems that come with NAS devices (NFS for Unix boxes and Common Information File System [CIFS] for Microsoft servers), vendors tweak the technology in myriad ways for maximum storage performance, says Mike Kahn, chairman of The Clipper Group, a technology acquisition consultant. |

| | Distributed File System |
| | The Microsoft Distributed File System (Dfs) provides the capability to logically centralize the physically distributed file system resources on your network. | | | Dfs abstracts the distributed network file system resources into a unified location, and allows a degree of load balancing for file system resources. | | | The Distributed File System runs as a network service and is managed through both a control panel and its own administrative tool, the Dfs Administrator. |

| | LinuxPlanet - Reports - Using the InterMezzo Distributed Filesystem - Getting Connected in a Disconnected World |
| | InterMezzo's synchronization mechanism is analogous to the "Offline Files" or "Briefcase" mechanisms provided in most modern versions of Microsoft Windows--except, of course, that InterMezzo is free and you can use it on a true multi-user system such as Linux. | | | A better solution to this problem is a distributed filesystem such as InterMezzo, which transparently caches the files that you are working on from the InterMezzo server. | | | These systems typically access files stored on a network while they are in use on one's desktop, but also need to be able to continue to work on these same files when using the laptop at home or when on the road in order to maximize productivity. |

| | Samba is the main network file system used by Linux in Windows environments that depend on Microsoft's SBM protocol for network file sharing. | | | In today's network paradigm, the network file system challenge has become the distributed file system challenge, as we have moved from self-contained LAN environments to a world of occasionally connected computing. | | | By their very nature, network file systems are superimposed on top of the local file system; without a local file system already in place, there is nothing the network file system can identify to mount over the network. |

| | Common Internet File System – John Hamill #97361925 |
| | The Common Internet File System or CIFS is Microsoft& answer to the problem of distributed file systems over the Internet. | | | CIFS supports three types of locking on file access order to maintain a file's integrity which can potentially be upset by non-locking systems such as Sun Microsystem's NFS which operates on the assumption that two users will never be writing to a particular file at the same time. | | | File and printer sharing is carried out by CIFS in a method that is transparent to the application. |

| | Operating system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | As well as the kernel, an operating system is often distributed with tools for programs to display and manage a graphical user interface, as well as utility programs for tasks such as managing files and configuring the operating system. | | | One notable early operating system was CP/M, which was supported on many early microcomputers and was largely cloned in creating MS-DOS, which became wildly popular as the operating system chosen for the IBM PC, its successors making Microsoft one of the world's most profitable companies. | | | Like the term "operating system" itself, the question of what exactly should form the "kernel" is subject to some controversy, with debates over whether things like file systems should be included in the kernel. |

| | Microsoft's new distributed file system (dfs) provides glue to put all server shares in a single file tree, similar to the glue provided by auto-mount daemons and yellow pages on Unix. | | | A distributed file system stores files on one or more computers called servers, and makes them accessible to other computers called clients, where they appear as normal files. | | | The Coda distributed file system is a state of the art experimental file system developed in the group of M. Satyanarayanan at Carnegie Mellon University. |
