I am currently on MacOS X and Linux. I thought that npfs is a
successor of
v9fs?
No, v9fs is the kernel 9p client. Npfs contains user space clients
and servers.
I have now also installed u9fs which is part of the Plan 9 iso. This
seams to be a complete Unix file system exporting solution for
accesing
remote file systems from Plan 9.
It is functional, but single threaded and synchronous.
My question is if I use the Plan9 in user
space port on the client side it would be theoretically possible to
use
the u9fs from non native Plan9 machines too?. What are the main
problems I
am running into if I do it this way?
No problems per say, but as the auth server hasn't been ported to p9p
you'll have to run a native plan 9 auth server or 9vx.
