Incorrect. The owner of a directory has implicit "a" access on the
directory. If the directory is the root of the volume, then the user
has implicit "a" access on the entire volume. So any directories with
mode 32766 should be fixed. I am about to change the AFS sources so
that this owner check does not apply to the anonymous id (and I will
send this back to Transarc).
Is this really true? It doesn't seem to work in the SIPB cell. But
then again, maybe I'm doing something wrong. I'm sure you know a lot
more about AFS than I do.....
