2. Options

2.1 Ignore case

Ignore case, handle mixing upper/lowercase filenames (but it's slow) and should only be used if you really need it.

2.2 Use lowercase

Use lowercase-filenames (if you don't set this, and you don't set "Ignore case" all files must be upper-case).

2.3 Removable volume

Removable volume (e.g. cd-roms) or volumes, which should be remountable when mars_nwe is running.

2.4 No fixed inodes

This volume do not have fixed inodes e.g. DOS-Volumes, CD-ROMS.

This setting is very important for attrib and trustee handling

2.5 Volume has only one filesystem/device/namespace

Volume has only one filesystem/device/namespace this is for filesystems with high inode > 0xFFFFFFF because for namespace services mars_nwe normally use the first 4 bit of 32 bit inode for distinguish between several devices/namespaces for one volume.

2.6 "PIPE"-filesystem

All files are pipe commands.

2.7 Volume is read-only, reports 0 bytes free

Volume is read-only and always reports "0 byte free" (this is intended for copies of CD-ROMs on harddisks).

2.8 Volume has trustees

Real access is trustee rights + un*x rights.

Trustees are stored in extra directories, normally under /var/nwserv/trustees.

Must only be used for volume which have fix inodes.

A volume with trustees should never be renamed.

For some more notes see 'doc/TRUSTEES'.

2.9 Volume has trustees but ignore Un*x rights

Volume has trustees and ignore the rights granted in UN*X filesystem exactly like "Volume has trustees" except that the unix rights are not added.

2.10 OS/2 namespace

Useful for Win95 clients.

2.11 NFS namespace
