  Hi folks

  I'm using arla-0.13 on Linux RH5.1 (kernel 2.1.119) and 
encountered a problem. Could anyone have any suggestion how
to work @sys function under the /afs directory path ?

  Our project sometime uses following directory specification
in /afs directory to support multiple platforms,

    /afs/something.../arch/.@sys/

In Transac AFS on linux, this  @sys is interpreted as
i386_linux2 and works well, like as follows.

 (Transac AFS on Linux RH 5.1, kernel 2.0.33)
 $ pwd
 /afs/something.../arc
 $ ls
 aix            i386_linux2    irix           linux          sun4os5pc
 hpux           i386_redhat50  irix64         osf1           sun4x_56
 $ cd @sys
 $ pwd
 /afs/something..,/arch/i386_linux2

However in Alra-0.13 on Linux RH5.1 (2.1.119), I have a problem.
  
 (arla-0.13 on Linux RH5.1 Kernel 2.1.119)
 $ pwd
 /afs/something.../arc
 $ls
 aix            i386_linux2    irix           linux          sun4os5pc
 hpux           i386_redhat50  irix64         osf1           sun4x_56
 $ cd @sys
 @sys: No such file or directory.


   Is this my own problem or current limitation of the arla-0.13 ?
Does anyone know how to work this @sys under  arla /afs directory 
on Linux ?   Thank you for any suggestion.
