---------------
here's what I get


iddwb@moroni:/afs/asu.edu/pp> fs lsmount /afs/asu.edu/pp
'/afs/asu.edu/pp' is a mount point for volume '#pp'
iddwb@moroni:/afs/asu.edu/pp> du
du: `.': No such device
iddwb@moroni:/afs/asu.edu/pp> cd oss
iddwb@moroni:/afs/asu.edu/pp/oss> fs lsmount /afs/asu.edu/pp/oss
'/afs/asu.edu/pp/oss' is a mount point for volume '#pp.oss'
iddwb@moroni:/afs/asu.edu/pp/oss> du
90	./technical/uncel
2	./technical/New Folder
iddwb@moroni:/afs/asu.edu/pp/oss> pwd
/afs/asu.edu/pp/oss
iddwb@moroni:/afs/asu.edu/pp/oss> cd ..
iddwb@moroni:/afs/asu.edu/pp> pwd
/afs/asu.edu/pp

I'm running Suse 9.0, kernel 2.4.xx and openafs 1.2.10.xx
and du version 5.0 (gnu)
