Hello,

unfortunately the ihandle patch does not solve the CopyOnWrite
problem. We had another CopyOnWrite failure this morning ...

Because only the .kde and .netscape directories we corrupted 
this time I did not restore the whole volume from backup but 
did a "salvager ... -orphan attach" twice. When I moved the 
volume away from this file server afterwards I got lots of 

Fri Apr  5 13:38:20 2002 ReallyRead(): read failed device 0 inode
80BD460 errno 5

in the file server log. 

Regards,
Marco
