Mail from a user on a linux Redhat 5.1 system mounting files from a F520 running 5.1.2R3, and getting some odd results with the .snapshot files. Sounds client-side to me, but I'm not real familiar with linux:

Here's an example of bad .snapshot confusion under Linux.

[runic] mv mAwareness.java mAwareness.bad [runic] cp .snapshot/hourly.1/mAwareness.java . cp: `.snapshot/hourly.1/mAwareness.java' and `./mAwareness.java' are the same file

(( no, they aren't; there shouldn't BE a ./mAwareness.java: I just mv'd it. )) (( later, viewing the directory on hawk confirms that the mv was done ))

[runic] cp .snapshot/hourly.1/mAwareness.java xx cp: .snapshot/hourly.1/mAwareness.java: No such file or directory

(( huh? it was just there ))

[runic] ls -l mA* -rw-rw-r-- 1 gmt gmt 870 Jan 12 15:33 mAwareness$1.class -rw-rw-r-- 1 gmt gmt 984 Jan 12 15:33 mAwareness$2.class -rw-rw-r-- 1 gmt gmt 1248 Jan 12 15:33 mAwareness.class -rw-rw-r-- 1 gmt gmt 1241 Dec 21 14:03 mAwareness.java

(( where's mAwareness.bad? ))

[runic] ls -l xx /bin/ls: xx: No such file or directory [runic] make clean make -f ../jMakefile clean make[1]: Entering directory `/.automount/home/gmt/.snapshot/hourly.1/cj/Monitor'

(( wait a minute. that's the wrong directory. I'm not in the snapshot dir. ))

rm -f built.t newest.t *.class *.jar rm: built.t: Read-only file system rm: newest.t: Read-only file system rm: Config.class: Read-only file system rm: Display$1.class: Read-only file system rm: Display$2.class: Read-only file system rm: Display.class: Read-only file system rm: HostPane.class: Read-only file system rm: Monitor$1.class: Read-only file system rm: Monitor$2.class: Read-only file system rm: Monitor.class: Read-only file system rm: Remote.class: Read-only file system rm: StripChart.class: Read-only file system rm: Supervisor$1.class: Read-only file system rm: Supervisor.class: Read-only file system rm: SysData.class: Read-only file system rm: SysEntry.class: Read-only file system rm: mAwareness$1.class: Read-only file system rm: mAwareness$2.class: Read-only file system rm: mAwareness.class: Read-only file system rm: mInit$1.class: Read-only file system rm: mInit.class: Read-only file system rm: mReporter$1.class: Read-only file system rm: mReporter.class: Read-only file system rm: rBoot$1.class: Read-only file system rm: rBoot.class: Read-only file system rm: rControl$1.class: Read-only file system rm: rControl.class: Read-only file system rm: rIdentity.class: Read-only file system rm: rLoad$1.class: Read-only file system rm: rLoad.class: Read-only file system rm: rMicro.class: Read-only file system rm: rboot.jar: Read-only file system rm: remote.jar: Read-only file system make[1]: *** [clean] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/.automount/home/gmt/.snapshot/hourly.1/cj/Monitor' make: *** [clean] Error 2

(( this would have worked except for the directory confusion ))
