The project is developed within the framework of an end of studies project in EPITECH. The major goal of this project is to provide a file system storing its data in an SQL relational database (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle...). NOOFS is an experimental project which gives solution to the problems and limitations of the current file system. In this direction NOOFS allows: * Sharing data through the network * Advanced security management * Quick search thanks to database engine * Extended information on the file system elements * Virtual Directories Management: folder with dynamic contents * Native data integrity management Changes since version 0.7: - New FUSE client with enhanced cache support (FUSE >= 2.4.0) We recommend to try this new client instead of using the classic kernel driver for the moment. - PostgreSQL 8.0 driver fixed - Major improvements of MySQL 4.1 driver - New support of MySQL 5.0 - Major bug fixes in the kernel FS driver for kernel 2.6.x.x - libxml2 removed: NOOFS no more use the libxml2 to have less packages dependencies - Major bug and security fixes for the whole project If you are interessted, download the latest source code of NOOFS at: http://www.noofs.org/ -- Best regards, the NOOFS development team.
