Distributed File System (Microsoft) - History

History

The server component of Distributed File System was first introduced as an add-on to Windows NT 4.0 Server, called "DFS 4.1", and was later included as a standard component of all editions of Windows 2000 Server. Windows NT 4.0 and later include client-side support for DFS. Versions 2.6.14 and later of the Linux kernel come with an SMB client VFS called "cifs" that supports DFS. Thursby Software's DAVE, ADmitMac and ADmitMac PKI products support DFS commercially on Mac OS X. DFS is reported to be supported natively in Mac OS X 10.7 ("Lion").

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    Racism is an ism to which everyone in the world today is exposed; for or against, we must take sides. And the history of the future will differ according to the decision which we make.
    Ruth Benedict (1887–1948)

    The history of American politics is littered with bodies of people who took so pure a position that they had no clout at all.
    Ben C. Bradlee (b. 1921)

    I am ashamed to see what a shallow village tale our so-called History is. How many times must we say Rome, and Paris, and Constantinople! What does Rome know of rat and lizard? What are Olympiads and Consulates to these neighboring systems of being? Nay, what food or experience or succor have they for the Esquimaux seal-hunter, or the Kanaka in his canoe, for the fisherman, the stevedore, the porter?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
