System type, version: (VS2) Version 6.0C
System name: binkley
What's wrong:
I had done an attach -r -m /charon/site -e charon:/site. Then I did
the following:
% detach charon:site; attach -w charon:site
charon:site: Not attached
charon:site: Already mounted, continuing...
charon:site: NFS mounted CHARON.MIT.EDU:/site on /charon/site (read-write)
% /etc/mount | grep -i charon/site
CHARON.MIT.EDU:/site on /charon/site type nfs (soft,ro)
I accept the first message. However, the third claims that it mounted
it read-write, which is false...
What should have happened:
attach should not claim things that it doesn't know... If possible, it
should change the mount type to the requested one (what I was trying
to do in any case; I don't know if this is feasible.)
