Servers: Athena cell (AFS 3.1B)
Clients: odie (RT), tardis (RIOS) both running 3.1B client code
I was editing a file on tardis, and closed the editor. I viewed the file
on tardis. When I went to compile it on odie, it compiled an older version.
Viewing it on odie revealed that it did not get updated... In addition,
further editing on tardis did not correct the problem (something is
severely broken in the callback mechanism). I went to edit it on odie,
which succeeded (and it still had the older version to start with in my
buffer).
The only thing I did not try was to flush the volume; I did try "fs checkb"
to correct the problem.
