Greetings AFS gurus!<br>
<br>
I&#39;m getting there with this new server, but am still working thru<br>
how to make directories for projects &amp; users.<br>
Each gets a &quot;volume&quot;, is that right? A chunk of space.<br>
<br>
I&#39;ve screwed up some by now &amp; have some &quot;?&quot; directories :<br>
<br>
in /afs/.ktest.phy (the &quot;read-write&quot;)<br>
<br>
?--------- &nbsp;? ? &nbsp; &nbsp;? &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ? &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;? lister<br>
?--------- &nbsp;? ? &nbsp; &nbsp;? &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ? &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;? user<br>
<br>
in /afs/ktest.phy<br>
<br>
?--------- &nbsp;? ? &nbsp; &nbsp;? &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ? &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;? home<br>
drwxrwxrwx &nbsp;2 root root 2048 Oct &nbsp;8 17:15 user/<br><br></blockquote><div></div><div>I would be concerned about how you got these before trying to delete them.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">

How do I delete these things so to start afresh?<br>
Think I&#39;ve tried fs rmmount lister and possibly vos remove home<br>
(but root&#39;s history seems to have lost that data)<br>
<br>
Very grateful for your advice! Pointers to online howto welcome<br>
too - I have now found quite a bit of doc on how to make things, but nothing yet on how to clean up .... accidents.<br>
