Hi hrjk, please prefix your post with [vfs], else chances are good my mailfilter wouldnt get them - and its common to do so on such umbrella lists. > If you have any > assumptions about release time of following features, please share them. > As always with open source, we (I) cant promise anything.

Did you ever considered to contribute a patch? *hint hint* ;-) At least please provide a complete listing of stuff you need. > 2. The JNDI support for VFS is in todo items also.

I think its common use case is to access an LDAP server. Having a JNDI provider in VFS means that you are able to access data on this LDAP server. So sorry, no, no way to map a network drive. For this to work we need JNI (Java Native Interface) and some native code for the underlaying OS. I have no plans to do such a thing. On the other hand, I thought about preparing a proposal for a JNI interface for VFS to do things like changing file attributes, maintaining its ACL and so on. Maybe a student will work on it for the next Google Summer Of Code - if there is one for sure.
