Andrew File System General

-developed by Carnegie Mellon -distributes, stores, and joins files on networked computers -focuses on security and scalability (growing for more users)

File Manipulation

-interpretation of the bytes in a file, which produces or doesn't produce the desired result -viewing problems linked to wrong program that interprets the bytes in a foreign or unexpected way to the user

mv [old_location/]old_file_name [new_location/][new_file_name]

-moves file to new location -if no new name is specified, file will keep same name -if no new location, file will simply change its name

Pathnames

-specific LOCATION of each directory and file on the file tree -functions as an address

How Pathnames work

-start with the root directory ("/") -continue through each branch of the file tree to the desired location separating each directory name with a slash "/"

Linux File Names

-up to 256 characters long -no special characters. if you have to, precede with back slash "\" (some!file --> some\!file) -no forward slash "/" -no spaces, to separate words use underscore (_), like_this

n your own words, explain the difference between the client and server in a P2P relationship.

A client and server relationship is when two different machines act as either the client or server, one requesting information and the other distributing it, respectively. Contrastly, in a P2P relationship, one machine acts as both the client and the server through custom software that determines which role is necessary for a given task.
