Hi Pete, > Could you describe what happens behind the scenes after a client connects > to the xrootd redirector? When you say "create an xrootd-enabled mover", > what does that imply exactly?

You can find more information about this in "dCache, the book": http://www.dcache.org/manuals/Book/index.shtml Patrick will supply you will all details at the CHEP. Best regards, Martin
