I found this amusing: 'Every operation on an object must be
accompanied by a "capability," a cryptographically-signed ticket which
names the object and the access rights possessed by the owner of the
capability. In the absence of a suitable capability, the drive will
deny access. ' -- oh, and the objects are '2 64-bit numbers'.
no assumptions about the network or protocol, eh?
