POHMELFS clients operate with a working set of servers and are capable of balancing read-only

POHMELFS is capable of full data channel encryption and/or strong crypto hashing.
One can select any kernel supported cipher, encryption mode, hash type and operation mode

Usage examples.
Add (or remove if it already exists) server server1.net:1025 into the working set with index $idx
Add server server1.net:1025 into the working set with index $idx
with appropriate hash algorithm and key file and cipher algorithm, mode and key file:
$cfg -a server1.net -p 1025 -i $idx -K $hash_key -k $cipher_key
$cfg A add -a server1.net -p 1025 -i $idx -K $hash_key -k $cipher_key
Mount filesystem with given index $idx to /mnt mountpoint.
Client will connect to all servers specified in the working set via previous command:
mount -t pohmel -o idx=$idx q /mnt
One can add or remove servers from working set after mounting too.
Change permissions to read-only (-I 1 option, '-I 2' - write-only, 3 - rw):
$cfg A modify -a server1.net -p 1025 -i $idx -I 1
Change IO priority to 123 (node with the highest priority gets read requests).
$cfg A modify -a server1.net -p 1025 -i $idx -P 123
