Hey, I found a quite strange effect with cifs (plan9 bell labs edition). I use cifs to mount werc installations from p9p linux servers. Cifs is needed here, as the virtual hosted machine does not support nfs. Maybe I should switch to another userspace filesystem, but for now its cifs.
Any node named `aux` is translated into `AHY9U3~9`, of course one-way only, such that I cannot use the `AHY9U3~9` node in my plan9 mount. Renaming to aux2 for example, solves the problem. I found this when looking at werc/bin/aux, which is a directory. So I tried this in werc/tpl: term% ed aux ?aux i This is a test . wq 15 term% ls -l --rw-rw-rw- M 166 bill trog 15 Aug 24 11:29 AHY9U3~9 --rw-rw-rw- M 166 bill trog 683 Mar 29 10:03 _debug.tpl d-rwxrwxrwx M 166 bill trog 0 Mar 29 10:03 _users --rw-rw-rw- M 166 bill trog 1919 Mar 29 10:03 sitemap.tpl Maybe I will hunt this further down next weeks... ... Ah I just found out, that ls 'aux' does actually work. Any hints for debugging this might help. cheers ingo krabbe
