(Optional) Prevents the server from performing a stat on a specified
URL whenever possible.
The effect of nostat="virtual-path" in the NameTrans function assign-name is
that the server assumes that a stat on the specified virtual-path will
fail. Therefore, use nostat only when the path of the virtual-path does not exist on the system, for example, for
NSAPI plug-in URLs, to improve performance by avoiding unnecessary stats on
those URLs.
When the default PathCheck server functions are used,
the server does not stat for the paths /ntrans-base/virtual-path and /ntrans-base/virtual-path/* if ntrans-base is set (the default
condition); it does not stat for the URLs /virtual-path and /virtual-path/* if ntrans-base is not set.
