First: I'm not an AFS admin, the -dynroot/CellAlias setup is for the
client on my own Thinkpad^Wworkstation.

Then: There are already aliases in our afs installation. This makes
paths much shorter. These aliases (symlinks) are available at the
complete intranet, even when logged in from home. So no confusion.

It's the other way round: With -dynroot I don't have the aliases that I
would have without so I need CellAlias to work with -dynroot.
