- Given that there were a few informative replies to the problem of getting
- the root directory of an aufs volume to display as a user wanted I thought
- I'd have another try at getting help me with this.
-
- Basically, if I double click on a document for which the application is on
- an aufs volume the application will not be found unless the folder which it
- is in is currently open.
-
- I setup a server volume, copied Resedit onto it then deleted it from my
- disk. I double clicked on a Resedit document and was told that the
- application could not be found. I opened it the folder (the server volume)
- it was in, double clicked on the document and the application was found.
- When I closed the folder again it wasn't found... It behaves the same way
- for things in the top level of a server or for things in folders in a
- server.
-
- My machine is a Q700 running 7.01 but it happens on anything. The server is
- a DecStation 500/200 running Ultrix 4.1 and CAP 6.0pl125.
-
- Here is the directory structure of the server called test_mac.
