Well, that's what Transarc told me in the Summer of '93.  But I'm
*glad* it's not true.  Thank you for the list of supported platforms.
I will reconsider AFS as a possible solution.  In particular the fact
that it's available for Linux and NetBSD makes it really attractive.

As to DCE/DFS, maybe it isn't vapour anymore but it sure can't be
seen as a universal solution yet.
