As part of removing/recreating the user, you removed the user.moe volume, and created the volume again, which gives the volume a different volume id number. The client caches volume lookups for 2 hours, so the client thought that the volume still existed under the old id, so it could not access the volume contents. And when you tried to access it more than 2 hours later, the client looked up the volume information again and got the correct volume id, so it all seemed fine. If you ran 'fs checkv' after deleting the account, it probably would have worked. -- Andrew Deason [email protected] _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
