Hello all,

I tried to copy 2 files onto an afs volume, but that didn't work too 
well for some reason. (I never had this problem before.)

projection_3a.tif" E212: Can't open file for writing

ls -al shows:

?---------  ? ?    ?             ?            ? projection_3a.tif
?---------  ? ?    ?             ?            ? projection_3.tif

Anyway, I tried to remove etc. the fiels but that doesn't go anywhere.
Basically most things say the files are not there, but with ls I see 
them show up.



any ideas ?


thanks,

Ron
