right,  that is what I thought.

now I have 2 afs cells,  when I connect to the "old" one with the windows machine I just see the one
correct server.
however when I connect to the new cell, suddenly, on the windows machine ,  2 servers show up.  One is
the correct server on the right address that is actually serving the cell.  and the other one is the
windows machine (that is not serving that cell) on the loopback address. I know it shouldn't show up,
but why does it ? (and where d I look to get it fixed ?).

thanks,

Ron
