What is claimed is: 1. A method for selling and executing an application located on a remote file system for a client, comprising: receiving a purchase request for the application from a computer system of the client, wherein the computer system is a node of a plurality of nodes of the client, wher
What is claimed is: 1. A method for selling and executing an application located on a remote file system for a client, comprising: receiving a purchase request for the application from a computer system of the client, wherein the computer system is a node of a plurality of nodes of the client, wherein the computer system includes an interface to the remote file system and a processor, and wherein the interface mounts the remote file system as part of a local file system of the computer system; adding an application icon to the remote file system , wherein the application icon allows execution of the application, and wherein the application icon is added to the remote file system after receiving the purchase request; receiving an execution request for the application from the computer system, wherein the execution request is received when the computer system accesses the application icon; and initiating execution of the application from the remote file system , wherein the application is executed by the computer system from the remote file system, and wherein the application is accessed by using the local file system. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising: adding a key for the application to the remote file system, wherein the key specifies that the computer system has permission to access the application. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the key is an executable file for the application. 4. The method of claim 2, wherein the key is a reference to a table. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the table references an executable file for the application if the key is valid. 6. The method of claim 2, wherein the key specifies a version of the application that the client has permission to access. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the client is one of a plurality of clients, and wherein access to the remote file system is limited to the plurality of nodes of the client. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein access to the application icon is limited to the plurality of nodes of the client. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the application is executed from the remote file system by the processor of the computer system. 10. A system for selling an application and permitting execution of the application for a client, comprising: a remote file system storing the application; and an e-commerce engine accessing the remote file system and configured to perform the steps of: receiving a purchase request for the application from a computer system of the client, wherein the computer system is a node of a plurality of nodes of the client, wherein the computer system includes an interface to the remote file system and a processor, and wherein the interface mounts the remote file system as part of a local file system of the computer system; adding the application icon to the remote file system, wherein the application icon allows execution of the application, and wherein the application icon is added to the remote file system after receiving the purchase request; receiving an execution request for the application from the computer system, wherein the execution request is received when the computer system accesses the application icon; and initiating execution of the application from the remote file system, wherein the application is executed by the computer system from the remote file system, and wherein the application is accessed by using the local file system. 11. The system of claim 10, wherein the remote file system further stores: a key for the application, wherein the key specifies that the computer system has permission to access the application. 12. The system of claim 11, wherein the key is an executable file for the application. 13. The system of claim 11, wherein the key is a reference to a table. 14. The system of claim 13, wherein the table references an executable file for the application if the key is valid. 15. The system of claim 11, wherein the key specifies a version of the application that the client has permission to access. 16. The system of claim 10, wherein the client is one of a plurality of clients, and wherein access to the remote file system is limited to the plurality of nodes of the client. 17. The system of claim 16, wherein access to the application icon is limited to the plurality of nodes of the client. 18. The system of claim 10, wherein the application is executed from the remote file system by the processor of the computer system. 19. A computer system, comprising: a local file system; an interface to a remote file system storing an application, wherein the interface mounts the remote file system as part of the local file system; a processor; and a computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therein, the computer readable program code adapted to, when executed by the processor, implement a method, the method comprising: sending a purchase request for the application; requesting execution of the application, by accessing an application icon stored on the remote file system, wherein the application icon is stored on the remote file system in response to the purchase request; and executing the application from the remote file system, wherein the application is accessed by using the local file system. 20. The computer system of claim 19, wherein the application is executed from the remote file system by the processor.
