  Subject: uss template V-line
  
  Here's a quotation from the Admin Guide concerning the V line in a uss 
  template:

  "Unless the template is a 0-length file, a "V" line must appear in it; 
  however, a template may contain only one "V" line which should be used to 
  set a user's home volume.  (To create other volumes for a user, within 
  the template file, use the "X" line.)"

  My question is:  May I use a second V line in a template (to create a 
  mail volume, in this case)?  

  I find the paragraph highly ambiguous.  It might mean that one can only
  use "one "V" line which should be used to set a user's home volume", but
  might use another V line which has another purpose.  However, this seems
  to be ruled out by the second sentence.  If it had said "a template may
  only contain one "V" line, [note the comma] which should be used...", it
  would be clear. 

  Who writes Transarc's manuels for them?  Don't they know about commas? One
  could interpret this paragraph to mean that the user in question is
  "within the template file".  Must be crowded in there! ;-)

  Thanks in advance for any help.  John
