(And you need a leading character to insure it's not treated as a volume id, iirc) It might be posssible to make it so "short" volume names continue to be treated by name, so "fs lq ~" still shows user.shadow and not x0000000000000001 or whatever, but you need to be careful to still hash any volume whose name might legitimately be in this portion of namespace. _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
