[OpenAFS-devel] Cannot overwrite a file

[Martin MOKREJŠ]

Hi,
  I have a problem on Tru64Unix copying some files. I believe it is not a
bug in cp(1) or tar(1) program. What happens is that while copying who tree
of directories, for certain file sI get "Permission denied". We use IBM Afs
afs3.6 2.45(client only). I can dlete the file and copy, that works, but I
cannot overwrite the old-one.

Here is the trace:

host.cellname#  trace -f /usr/bin/cp /usr/local2/bin/tcsh /afs/.cellname/afsws/afs-alpha-mips/usr/local2/bin/tcsh
