Hi Rick, we have user space pNFS server written in java. It's part of dCache project but can be used stand alone for testing. Requires JVM and disk space to store data blocks: 1. checkout and build $ hg clone http://www.dcache.org/~tigran/cgi-bin/hgwebdir.cgi/jpnfs dcache-nfs $ cd dcache-nfs $ mvn clean package 2. tweak nfs.properties: put you host ip instead of 192.168.2.108 current setup will start mds and ds on the same host on ports 2049 and 2052. File system is re-initialized on restart. 3. start it: $ java -jar target/jpNFS-0.0.4-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar oncrpcsvc.xml 4. test your client Regards, Tigran.
