Network File System Differences
Case-Sensitivity
When remote UNIX clients mount objects that the server exports from a UDFS, the
case-sensitivity is variable, depending on how the user created the UDFS. AUDFS
that is mounted on a UNIX client can cause the case-sensitivity to change in the
middle of a directory tree.
System and User Auxiliary Storage Pools
The contents of a UDFS exist in a user auxiliary storage pool (ASP), but the UDFS
block special file itself always lies in the system ASP.

Directory Authority
UNIX clients need *X (execute) authority to create files within a directory.This is
true when working with any mounted AS/400 file system. By default, UNIX clients
may not create directories with *X (execute) authority attached. UNIX clients may
need to change the UMASK mode bits to ALLon the execute bit when directories
are created. This will allow objects to be created within that directory.
