Also note that the version available in ports/packages for FreeBSD 4.x is
CFS v1.4.0b2. CFS v1.4.1 is available on Matt Blaze's site.

However, the documentation doesn't seem to indicate what may have changed
between these versions.
I found this while looking for pointers to compressible file systems (before
anyone warms up their flame thrower, they're still of good use for some
applications even though disk is real cheap). Any leads there? I couldn't
find anything.

I'd say, it's a daemon pretending to be an NFS server. It's running locally
on port other than NFS.
Very nice implementation, I use it a lot. A small problem with it is that
it seems to support 7-bit file names only.
