From: Marc Horowitz <marc@ATHENA.MIT.EDU>
System name: hodge
Type and version: KN01 7.1H (2 update(s) to same version)
Display type: PM-MONO
What were you trying to do?
attach an afs r/w volume. (Ignore the fact that the -e arg is
wrong :-)
What's wrong:
attach passes a NULL pointer to printf:
<8> hodge:~> attach -m /mit/windowmanagers -e /afs/athena/project/windowmanagers
attach: Illegal explicit definition "/afs/athena/project/windowmanagers" for type (null)
What should have happened:
it should have realized that it was an afs filesystem.
Actually, attach -w windowmanagers should work, or at least try (if
it's an afs volume, replacing /afs/ with /afs/. in the mount target).
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
