There really isn't anything that special about the coding. The original coding used 64 characters, including A-Z and a-z. The "special" coding just uses other punctuation characters instead of upper case letters. When I made the change, I figured users on other platforms would be used to the original coding, so I just special cased the DARWIN case to use the "special" encoding.

Thank you for this very informative response. I went ahead and rebuilt my cell using HFS+ Case-Sensitive, Journaled FS on all partitions. So far, everything is ok, as you might well expect.


Ha! Well, that was a short-lived expectation. Everything seemed to work ok, with the exception of the following error messages that appeared in the system.log output:

# this appeared 3 times
angst kernel[0]: afs: byte-range lock/unlock ignored; make sure no one else is running this program.

# later this appeared 4 times
angst kernel[0]: afs: Lost contact with file server X.X.X.X in cell delamancha.org (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces maybe up)

And, sadly, my volumes have gone walking and taken the data with them. :-(

vos listvldb shows 17 volumes in total
vos listvol angst shows only 5 volumes and all of those off-line.

*sigh*

To UFS we must go! To UFS we must go!
Hi-ho the Derry-O! To UFS we must go!
