Talk:Network file system

message: DFS does also mean Dynamic Frequency Selection. I suggest to create a disambiguation page here. Can someone do this for me? I have no Idea how to create something like this...
I think a catalog like Comparison of file systems would be handy.
There is no such thing as DFS
: says 68.231.243.104 who has removed all the content 4 or 5 times in the past week.
68.231.243.104, instead of removing the content, why not replace it with something explaining why there is not such thing as a DFS. Or better yet, leave the content alone and discuss it on the talk page. You your creating making a nuisance of yourself by not talking. Tom Brown 22:41, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: SVK is an SCM. I can't see the point to list it in the distributed file system ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by AlexandreDulaunoy (talk • contribs) 
:Yes, doesn't make sense to me, although the definition of a "distributed file system" is rather vague. Removed -- intgr 15:40, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  SVK as a distributed file system ? 

message: As far as I can understand, the article's definition seems to say that a "distributed file system" is a file system that allows access to individual files over the network.
However, some cluster file systems also call themselves "distributed file systems". These file systems run on each cluster node and are "distributed" in the sense that they access the same disk storage backend (block device) over the network and keep all other nodes in sync with updates; this approach is, however, very different from usual networked file systems that allow access directly to individual files and directories over the network.
I think the article should more clearly state what the different terms mean. -- intgr 16:00, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: As per the confusion/comments in above posts, I am going ahead and moving this article to "Network file system" -- intgr 16:22, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Cannot move, a redirect is in the way. Will propose to requested moves instead. -- intgr 22:15, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

text: The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section. 
The result of the debate was Move Network File System → Network File System (Sun) and then distributed file system → network file system.  The only opposition was based on name clash and this is a good counterproposal.  If another disambiguated title gains consensus, it's unlikely to be blocked anyway so feel free to handle that here.  —Wknight94 (talk) 13:07, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

# Oppose.  Network File System is trademarked and network file system redirects to the article about it, as it should.  Trying to distinguish based on upper/lower case is discouraged.  --Serge 19:00, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
