What were you trying to do?
Make the bitbucket fileset read-only from my workstation,
without authenticating:
% attach -n bitbucket
% echo 'this is read-only' > /mit/bitbucket/read-only
What's wrong:
The file /mit/bitbucket/read-only was created. The man
page said:
Also supported are 'r' (read-
only), 'n' (read-only, do not attempt to authenticate), ...
^^^^^^^^^
What should have happened:
It should have been apparent that '-n -r' was necessary.
Perhaps the string "read-only, " could simply be deleted.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
