I gave it a try under Ubuntu 10.04 with both Nautilus and sshfs as 
client. Browsing through the directories and opening small and big files 
is working pretty well. Creating directories and renaming file names is 
also working.

However, I had no luck in writing immutable files. The process was 
simply hanging and no activity was visible on the node status page. A 
detailed log recovered using 'flogtool tail' during the upload is 
attached to this mail.
