Folks,

I've seen various messages in the archives discussing that the namei fileserver probably does not work with HFS+ and that special "coding" was done to support having the cache files on HFS+ in case- preserving mode. I haven't been able to discern whether or not these issues were specific to HFS+ in case-preserving mode or if they still apply when HFS+ is configured in Case-Sensitive mode.

I have 5 OpenAFS clients / 1 server running now with the following setups:

  1 server using UFS partitions for /vicepxx
1 client using HFS+ Case-preserving for cache files in /var/db/ openafs/cache 4 clients using HFS+ Case-sensitive for cache files in /var/db/ openafs/cache

Is the special coding I've seen reference to a conscientious attempt to keep cache files from being identical modulo case?

Is there some reason why I should fear using HFS+ Case-sensitive fs on the server?
