DCE Cell with DFS
In order to have full Distributed File Service support, including DCE's Local File System, a DCE cell can contain one or more DFS file server machines (see the following figure). As mentioned in DCE User Machine Configuration, the DCE user is equipped to act as a DFS client, and may also export the client's local file system to other machines on the network, using the DFS server software. The DFS file server machine, however, is specially equipped with DCE LFS, a physical file system that supports distributed file system features such as file replication, online backup, and other advanced administrative support.
