hey, here's another good way to confuse your workstation:
cd ~
fs mkmount lose user.kkkken
repeat 10000 cd lose
It sat there for a long time, and finally did really lose:
athena% cd /afs/athena/user/k
athena% pwd
/afs/athena.mit.edu/user/k
athena% cd kkkken
athena% pwd
/
athena% echo $cwd
/afs/athena/user/k/kkkken
It's actually pwd that's lying (as revealed by stat).
Should afs prevent you from mounting volumes under themselves?
