Yeah, but having someone create a /vicepa directory and then the fileserver just ignore it and say that /vicepa doesn't exist is really unfriendly. We can argue about the wording of the error message (it could just say "ignoring /vicepa because it isn't a separate partition"), but it should say *something*. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
