SecureShare: Safe UNIX/Windows File Sharing through Multiprotocol Locking
Authors:
Andrea J. Borr, Network Appliance, Inc.
Abstract:
As mixed UNIX/Windows environments become more common, safe file sharing among the NFS and CIFS clients becomes a significant problem. In this paper, we describe SecureShare, a multiprotocol file sharing technology that resolves the mismatch between NFS/NLM and CIFS file locking protocols, provides coherent caching and enables multiprotocol change notification.
SecureShare achieves the goal through a uniform lock-mode model and multiprotocol oplock management. This paper presents the main features of SecureShare and discusses the rationale behind its design.
