All,
Is it possible to determine AFS file ownership under Windows? It appears
that this can't be done because the _stat function call only returns a 0
(zero) UID for a file in AFS space. Is this because Microsoft hardcoded it
to work this way, or because the AFS client isn't providing the UID value
to the _stat call?
I understand that Windows can't map the UID to a name because Windows
doesn't use a passwd file. So I was going to write a quick and dirty app
to translate the UID via PTS. I think tokens works this way? It would be
nicer for Windows users if there was a "fs listowner" or fs lo command...a
future?
