[OpenAFS-port-darwin] Mount_afs question

[Jonathan Z. Simon]

John,

That was what I was stuck on till I did a lot of googling and also got 
help from Alexei. The key is that mount_afs needs the "volume-name" to 
mount, which is something you're normally not aware of as a user.

To find out the volume-name of a directory, use the command "fs examine 
<dir>", e.g.
 > fs examine /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/j/w/jwelch/
and look a the name of the volume (it should be at the end of the first 
line). Use *that* name as the volume-name. Other commands, such as "fs 
quota" will also give you the volume name.

e.g., for me.
 > pwd
/afs/glue.umd.edu/home/isr/j/jzsimon
 > fs examine .
Volume status for vid = 1970656703 named h.isr.jzsimon
Current disk quota is 1000000
Current blocks used are 689261
The partition has 66059201 blocks available out of 68811300

So my volume name is h.isr.jzsimon
