	Introducing FUSE: Filesystem in USErspace (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		FUSE (Filesystem in USErspace) provides a simple interface for userspace programs to export a virtual filesystem to the Linux kernel.
		FUSE also aims to provide a secure method for non privileged users to create and mount their own filesystem implementations.
		I've tested fuse with a simple 'loopback' test program, and also with AVFS (http://www.inf.bme.hu/~mszeredi/avfs/), for which FUSE was designed for.

	FUSE (Linux) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		FUSE was officially merged into the mainstream Linux kernel tree in kernel version 2.6.14.
		FUSE is not limited to, but particularly useful for writing virtual file systems.
		The FUSE system was originally part of the A Virtual Filesystem (AVFS) project, but has since split off into its own project on SourceForge.

	Fuse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fuse (hydraulic) — a device used in hydraulic systems to protect against sudden loss of fluid pressure.
		Fuse (explosives) — a trigger for an explosive device or fireworks.
		FUSE (Linux) — the Filesystem in Userspace Linux kernel module; it used to be part of the A Virtual Filesystem (AVFS) project but now has its own project on SourceForge.

	fuse
		Linux (and now also FreeBSD) has a kernel module called fuse which provides a user file system - basically it's the same as tclvfs but implemented at the linux kernel level.
		The linux fuse module and utilities can be found at http://fuse.sf.net and are required for this tcl package to function.
		FUSE allows a Unix user with no special privileges to mount a virtual filesystem by using a custom executable and a standard program provided by the FUSE package (fusermount) to initiate a communication pathway to the FUSE kernel module.

	Develop your own filesystem with FUSE
		FUSE lets you develop a fully functional filesystem that has a simple API library, can be accessed by non-privileged users, and provides a secure implementation.
		With FUSE, you can develop a filesystem as executable binaries that are linked to the FUSE libraries -- in other words, this filesystem framework doesn't require you to learn filesystem internals or kernel module programming.
		FUSE works with both kernels (2.4.x and 2.6.x) and now supports Java™ binding, so you aren't limited to programming the filesystem in C and C++.

	FUSE how-to
		FUSE is built in 3 levels: a kernel module that captures VFS calls, an intermediate level that replies to the module and resolves paths and other issues, and your own user level implementation that can behave in unique ways.
		Meanwhile, the main fuse thread at the intermediate level (actually user space) is polling the proc file for requests.
		Under fedora core 2, FUSE (or the OS) expects you to return a stat64 structure instead of a stat structure.

	Lighting the FUSE \| Linux Magazine
		FUSE enables Linux to use filesystems that are implemented as userspace code, which simplifies the creation of filesystems.
		When you install FUSE, as described shortly, the software detects whether or not FUSE support is already present in the kernel.
		This is different from the Linux kernel’s SMB and CIFS drivers, which enable you to mount specific file shares individually.

	ZFS on FUSE/ApplicationProposal - Wizy Wiki
		The goal of the project is to implement the ZFS filesystem on the FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) framework in the Linux platform.
		The Linux operating system has a very large installed base, and if ZFS was available to these users, it would ease the transition to Solaris/OpenSolaris, if it proved advantageous.
		This is because I intend to use code from the OpenSolaris ZFS implementation (which is CDDL-licensed), both in the spirit of open-source and code reuse, and because of the limited time-frame.

	LinuxDevCenter.com -- Problems in SpamAssassin, PEAR, and Bugzilla
		FUSE implements a fully functional filesystem in an application that runs in user space.
		A problem in FUSE has been reported that could under some conditions allow a local attacker to read pages of memory that they should not be able to access.
		The maintainers of Trustix Secure Linux have announced that releases number 1.5 and 2.1 have reached their end of life and that future patches and updates are not planned.

	Writing to your Windows 2000/XP NTFS partition from Linux. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		After compiling FUSE and running Jan's script to install his pre-compiled Captive binaries, I was able to mount/unmount my Windows XP (service pack 2) NTFS partition read/write.
		The configuration script finds that a FUSE module is already present and that it is from the official kernel.
		You copy your files from Linux to the VFAT partition and then use Windows to copy them from there to the NTFS partition.

	Linux.com \| CLI Magic: EncFS
		FUSE has an option to allow root access, and to allow all users.
		Encfs has a command line option "--public" which will pass the appropriate flags to FUSE to allow all-user access, but that means encfs must be run as root.
		One disadvantage (or maybe you see it as an advantage) of ecryptfs is though that it doesn't work with fuse, but requires a seperate kernel module (which is already in the -mm kernel tree though).

	Linux Pipeline \| LogicBlaze Launches Open-Source SOA Stack (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		LogicBlaze aims to work closely with VARs and ISVs to promote its Fuse stack, which the Marina del Rey, Calif.-based company is positioning as a less expensive alternative to proprietary middleware.
		Fuse is available for download on LogicBlaze's Web site.
		Fuse's flexibility is even more attractive than its price for partner eCube Systems, a legacy systems modernization firm in Conroe, Texas.

	“Fuse for FreeBSD” documentation
		In Linux, this couldn’t work out this way (given the design chosen by Linux Fuse): there is one Fuse device only, and a fail-safe identification of the subject of the mount is possible only within the scope of one process.
		To add, Linux Fuse doesn’t seem to rely on its more protected situation: Linux Fuse was immune to those crashing schemes that were used to be possible to summon by non-privileged users in FreeBSD (in Linux, these were attempted as root, of course).
		In Linux, the buffers hosting the fields of a request are allocated on the stack (that is, these fields are pointers to structures held in variables of syscall handlers), in FreeBSD, they are allocated dynamically (they are not freed when the ticket gets dropped, they are kept, reused, and reallocated on demand).

	Fun with FUSE LG #134
		FUSE) is a very neat innovation in the Linux kernel which allows users to homogeneously mount almost anything as a directory with files, and opens up a new and fun way of handling various operations.
		FUSE is available for the Linux kernel, as well as for FreeBSD and OpenSolaris.
		Also, FUSE is not restricted to just network based services; it acts as a layer for using various filesystems and external devices as well.

	ZFS on FUSE/Linux
		Due to the recent surge of interest in porting ZFS to the Linux kernel (if you are in the mood to read dozens of messages, see this thread, the follow-up, plus this one and one more), I'd like to offer my view on things.
		In the mean time, I've posted some patches to zfs-code, started to work on the FUSE part of the project (finally!), and migrated the code repository from Subversion to Mercurial (you can access it here).
		Unfortunately, in Linux it doesn't, which means I had to remove all comments from the ported assembly files..

	FUSEWiki - FAQ
		Is it possible to mount a fuse filesystem from fstab?
		The main difference between them is that in LUFS the filesystem is a shared object (.so) which is loaded by lufsmount, and in FUSE the filesystem is a separate executable, which uses the fuse library.
		FUSE 2.5.3 (supports 2.4.21 or later); later versions include a kernel module compatible with Linux 2.6 only (Linux 2.6.9 or later, as of FUSE 2.6.1).

	Linux kernel 2.6.14 gets released
		Many Linuxes, such as SUSE 10 and Xandros 3 already support Centrino through the use of ipw2xxx drivers and Linux's hotplug infrastructure.
		FUSE, like the no-longer-supported LUFS, is designed to provide an abstract interface for making remote files and file systems appear and act as if they were on your local file system.
		Since in Linux, almost anything can be treated as a file, you can also use FUSE to access Google's GMail and BitTorrent streams as file systems.
