Hi osf-managers,

My problem was, that the following command does not work in a tcsh:

/sbin/mount -t advfs root_domain#clone_root /clone_root

The solition is very very simple:
The tcsh interprets the # in the fileset specification as a comment deliminator. So
I have to quote it in one of the following ways:

/sbin/mount -t advfs root_domain\#clone_root /clone_root or
/sbin/mount -t advfs 'root_domain#clone_root' /clone_root

I use the second possibility and it works fine.

Many thanks to:
