Yup - so I dropped it and therefore I'm checking out AFS - which seems 
like a good alternative.

But: What's the maximum volumesize? (and does serversize scale with 
volsize in any way?)

And it really doesn't support disconnected operation yet? Are there any 
other open/free AFS implementations which do? Is disconnected mode 
planned to be implemented in some feasable time?
