I strongly prefer that you use the cname sipb-nfs and not get a new
cname. We have traditionally had cnames for services, not for
filesystems. (A filsys record for redhat-athena, on the other hand,
is fine, although I suspect it's too much work to get the install disk
to use it.)
Emil: I don't think it was appropriate for you to say "(Can someone
allocate that?)" as if the decision were made and someone with bits
should go ahead and do it. It had been less than 24 hours and there
was no agreement from an rtfm maintainer.
