What does \\AFS\root map to?

You have created the mount points in the volume homestaff.cowboy which 
is located in a remote
location.  This is not where the freelance mount points must be created. 

[C:\]net use g:
Local name        G:
Remote name       \\afs\all
Resource type     Disk
Status            OK
# Opens           1
# Connections     2
The command completed successfully.

[C:\]fs mkmount g: root.cell afs-2.csc.depauw.edu

[C:\]g:

[G:\]fs lsmount afs-2.csc.depauw.edu
'afs-2.csc.depauw.edu' is a mount point for volume 
'#afs-2.csc.depauw.edu:root.cell'

The trick is that the Freelance mount points must be created in the 
Freelance root.cell
which is \\AFS\all

As I have mentioned previously, these mount points are automatically 
generated for
you the first time you attempt to access \\AFS\<cellname> where 
<cellname> is
a valid cell in the CellServDB or in an AFSDB record.  

Of course, if you turned off Freelance mode then these statements do not 
apply.
