CFS is somewhat different than most other projects we have
developed using Chord/DHash: it uses the SFS toolkit to
provide a user-level NFS server.  Unless you are trying to
develop a filesystem using Chord/DHash it is probably not
the most basic example.

You may wish to look at the source code in devel/dhash_benchmark.C
for a very basic put/get based application: it stores random data.
A slightly more advanced program is devel/filestore.C which creates
an inode data structure (similar to standard FFS or sfsrodb) inodes
and uses it to store a file from the command line.

What kind of application are you looking to develop?
