    3232 Tuning the federated environment::
    33   As part of our larger goal of building an experimental environment tuned for federated experiments, we are working to efficiently generalize and scale the parts of the existing environment that are conceptually useful but implemented for a local testbed.  For example, providing a shared file system to many hosts in the wide area will be better accomplished with a file system designed for those goals.  Our first step to the reliable-messaging and integrated authentication of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Message_Block SMB] from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_File_System_(protocol) NFS] represents a first step toward a wide-area file system for federation.  We intend to continue to improve these generalizations.  These improvements are largely in the [FeddAbout#TheFederationKit federation kit]
