What were you trying to do?
detach a filesystem I had just attached explicitely
(type AFS).
What's wrong:
detach behaved bogusly:
% attach -m /mnt/usr/sipb -t AFS -e /afs/.athena/contrib/sipb
attach: /afs/.athena/contrib/sipb linked to /mnt/usr/sipb for filesystem /afs/.athena/contrib/sipb
% detach /mnt/usr/sipb
detach: /afs/.athena/contrib/sipb detached
/afs/.athena/contrib/sipb: Can't remove directory : Invalid argument
Why the heck was it trying to remove
/afs/.athena/contrib/sipb??!!! This error message makes
me a bit nervous. It is correct for it to try to remove
/mnt/usr/sipb and /mnt/usr, but not anything in the path
being attached!
What should have happened:
It should have left /afs/.athena/contrib/sipb alone.
