34         <para>The <command>vfs_streams_depot</command> enables storing of NTFS
35         alternate data streams in the file system. As a normal posix file
36         system does not support the concept of multiple data streams per file,
37         the streams_depot module stores the data in files in a separate
38         directory.</para>
