Abstract

Systems that maintain objects created and modified within designated directories on a per-client basis in a network filesystem include a file server having a local processor, memory operably connected to the local processor, a filesystem including main directories loaded into the memory, and a list of operations loaded into the memory. At least one client is operably connected to the server having a remote processor and memory operably connected to the remote processor. The file server has designated at least one of the main directories as a per-client writable directory, and the file server exports the filesystem read-only to at least one client.
