Here's the CellAlias file I'm using, for example.  I had meant to
include it somewhere with the AFS distribution, but couldn't find
a good place for it..

#
# This file can be used to specify AFS cell aliases, one per line.
# The syntax to specify "my" as an alias for "my.cell.name" is:
#
#   my.cell.name	my
