System name: red-herring.mit.edu
Type and version: i686 9.1.11 (with mkserv)
Display type:
Shell: /bin/athena/bash
Window manager: ctwm
What were you trying to do?
Detach an NFS mount without hesiod.
What's wrong:
The error from detach is confusing
[cfox@red-herring]cfox$ attach -e jason:/u1/bitbucket
attach: jason.MIT.EDU:/u1/bitbucket attached to /jason/u1/bitbucket for filesystem jason:/u1/bitbucket
[cfox@red-herring]cfox$ detach -e jason:/u1/bitbucket
Cannot attach locker on /jason/u1/bitbucket:
directory /jason/u1/bitbucket is not on root filesystem.
I'm aware that 'detach /jason/u1/bitbucket' would do what I want.
It's just that the text of the error message is confusing, and the
detach man page gives no hint of what else the -e option might be
good for.
