The claim is that the AT&T RFS is fully, 100% transparent, assuming of
course that one machine doesn't crash while you're using it (in which
case any network-file-system scheme is in trouble).  From what I know
of the way they've done it, the claim should be correct unless they've
botched something.  They've even found a fix, albeit a stopgap one,
for the problem of programs that compare  pairs to tell
whether two files are one and the same.
