(This is from the sun, but I tested it on a 7.4 vax, and it does the
same thing)

<242> deathtongue:~> attach -e hostname:/u1 sipb
hostname:/u1: Can't resolve host hostname
Operation aborted
attach: Illegal explicit definition "sipb" for type (null)
Exit 2


It should attach sipb, not treat it as an explicit filesystem:

<243> deathtongue:~> attach foo sipb
foo: Can't resolve name
attach: Filesystem "sipb" is already attached
Exit 2

This prints an error for foo, and goes on.  This is correct behavior.
