Dear list,
recently I noticed
$ mkdir a
$ mkdir a/b
$ ln -s a/b l
$ fs mkm a/b/m volume
$ fs lsm a/b/m
'a/b/m' is a mount point for volume '#volume'
$ fs lsm l/m
'l/m' is a mount point for volume '#volume'
$ fs rmm l/m
fs:'l/m': Not a directory
$ fs rmm a/b/m

We're using xfs on top of md s/w raid-1 over a local and an

We had some problems since we set it up, but it was never

Dear list,
From what I see, 'vos syncvldb' will not sync the locations of
volumes on a server B in case the VLDB believes the volumes to
be on server A *and* A is down. It times out on the connection
attempt to A and leaves the VLDB untouched.
I couldn't find an option to enforce the sync. Shoul

Hartmut already has a patch that provides this functionality?

The ProgramData folder containing krb5.conf is (usually) a hidden folder.
If you did not enable the folder option to show hidden files and folders, it
may explain why you don't "have" it.

Hi,
We observe what seems to be two different types of NIM/Heimdal crashes when
using
Heimdal 1.5.1
NIM 2.0.102.907
OpenAFS for Windows 1.7.15
Windows 7 Enterprise SP1, 64 bit
The first crash happens intermittently when obtaining new krb5 credentials.

unreachable server, and
- it will not even update VLDB in the end if communication fails. Correct?

Yes.
What does this buy, assuming all data served from storage comes
worth adding to openafs, so
feedback is welcome.

From what I understood, you use ZFS on the servers, not the clients, right?

Hi all,
browsing through the documentation and the code for some
time, the only limitation I found for volume names is the
length restriction to 22 chars (and the forbidden suffices
for RO and BK volumes).
I found no restriction on the character set for
volume names (like excluding some specia
