BTW, why can't AFS allow hard links within a single volume? Doesn't the client know where separate volumes are mounted in the /afs tree?
The problem is that file acls are actually attached to the file's parent directory, not to the file. I'd like to see this fixed but I doubt it will happen in our lifetimes.
Hmm, the same file with different permissions based on directory.
I can see newbies loving that, but security people hating it.
AFS must have a static inode system that it presents to the kernel or else NFS from AFS would be nothing but trouble, but I've heard of that setup working with AFS, so there must be some infrastructure already in place that would support per file permissions...
