Subject: nfs's interface and unix fs system call
Date: Mon, 09 May 2011 22:56:13 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4DC8D37D.20800@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi everyone, I'm new to nfs and I read a line of words refering to NFS 
in <Distributed Systems --- Concepts and Design>:
"User programs can access files via Unix system calls without 
recompilication or reloading"

My question is, as far as I know, unix system call include "open" 
operation while NFS server operation does not, it seems to be 
contradictary to the quotings above, why?
