I had bldgw20-rtusr-60r attached as /mnt on achates. I was cd'd into
a directory on that filesystem, so it was busy. I did "detach -a" and
it told me that it could not detach the filesystem because it was
busy.
I cd'd into my homedir and tried "detach -a" again, and it did
nothing. Turns out that the first detach, even though it didn't work,
removed my UID from the list of people with interest in the filesystem
in /usr/tmp/attachtab?
Is this expected behavior? If so, I don't think it should be.... if
the detach fails, the UID should not be removed from the list of
interested users.
