Thanks! thats new to me too! In the past, I've used the loopback concept: # make a 1G file dd if=/dev/zero of=/bigmount/vicepa bs=1k count=1000000 # mkfs on it - ignore complaints about it being a file mkfs /bigmount/vicepa # set up loopback mount on it mount /bigmount/vicepa /vicepa -oloop the above can be added to /etc/fstab. it works fine on linux / mac for testing, probably not optimal for production. mileage may vary._______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
