I rather cheaply hacked a thing that does something like this
a few months ago. Basically:
449 dl2n@freehold:mtpt> mtpt ~dl2n
cs.cmu.edu:user.dl2n /afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr12/dl2n/foo
acs.asg.dl2n /afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr12/dl2n/work
acs.asg.dl2n-msgs /afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr12/dl2n/.MESSAGES
It doesn't tell you about backup volumes (easy to change).
The source can be found in
/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr12/dl2n/src/mtpt.
The work was already done by Jay Laefer (jl57+@andrew.cmu.edu)
- I just frobbed it a little. As is apparent from the code, I'm making
shockingly little use of the functionality that is in there. The
complete source (and documentation) for the library is in
/afs/andrew.cmu.edu/system/src/contributed/niftylibs/017[/dirs]
but is not needed for mtpt. Jay tells me that he is planning to do
something about really releasing the library sometime this summer. In
the meantime if anyone finds it useful we'd appreciate feedback ...
