Yeah, I think you're right.. Last time someone suggested that the finder won't try to do the open(dir/.somefile) if the file is a symlink with the sticky bit set (or the containing directory has the sticky bit set, I can't quite recall), in which case a simple workaround might be to create, say, /AFS with the sticky bit set, and symlink in all the cells you care about from /afs. (Though I hope the finder keeps track of the path it's taken, when going up a level, rather than using "..", since in the latter case we still have the same problem. :-) Same thing could be done with dynroot, with slight modifications to the code. -- kolya _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
