which reminds me - is there any concept akin to 'toolong' in the filer name lookup cache? You probably need to watch out for that at your nfs client too.
where XX and XXXX are the first 2 and first 4 characters of <full_usr_name> and Z is a hash spliting the <full_usr_name> between 2 filers -- yes, we have a rather large system ;)
why not just use the hash the username, and then split that up into a suitable number of chunks?
