  • MacFUSE provides a flexible and adaptive mechanism to handle extended attributes (including things such as Finder Info, Resource Forks, and ACLs)
  • extended attributes as Apple Double (._) files
  • all or only some extended attributes
  • ...14 more annotations...
  • To properly support ACLs, a user-space file system must correctly handle the com.apple.system.Security extended attribute
  • MacFUSE supports Mac OS X access control lists (ACLs)
  • With auto_xattr, the kernel will /always/ use ._ files
  • MacFUSE limits volume access to the user that mounted the volume
  • blanket denial is a first line of defense
  • allow_other to turn the blanket denial off
  • not a means of distributed file sharing
  • SFTP is merely a utility
  • create a true distributed file system based on MacFUSE
  • nolocalcaches makes the operating system work in an abnormal mode
  • relevant code paths may not have been well tested
  • overhead
  • file operations could end up being /much/ slower
  • SFTP provides no synchronization or locking
