[OpenAFS-port-darwin] Panther, OpenAFS 1.2.10a and "inherited" tokens

[Aaron Rosenblum]

Hi,

I noticed that now under 10.3, I don't have problems accessing files if=20=

there is a uid mismatch between the local user and the afs pts id so=20
long as I have a token.  In 10.2, we needed to change the local uid #'s=20=

to match the pts id, or else the finder would get weird and not let me=20=

open my own files - even if i had a token.  Can anyone else=20
independently verify for sure that this issue is resolved, and we no=20
longer need to match uids?  Is there any consequence of not doing so in=20=

10.3/1.2.10a?  Am I just fooling myself here?

thanks

Aaron
