What were you trying to do?
I was transferring a file to my afs locker from a non-athena
workstation by turning "access on" on my workstation and doing
the ftp to it while logged in there.
What's wrong:
Evidently, the transfer drove me over quota silently. The ftp
completed without reporting an error on the client.
A zero-length file, with the name I had specified in the transfer,
was created in my afs locker.
What should have happened:
The client ftp on the other system should have been returned
an indication that the transfer failed. A zero-length file
should not have been created.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
None.
