From 8db0c3823590e0bb7b41a9d0f48ed333067bab7e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Deason Date: Mon, 17 May 2010 15:44:50 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Mention that -fakestat fakes local cellular mounts The afsd man page says that -fakestat only fakes stat information for cross-cell mount points. Technically it fakes stat information for all cellular mount points, local or foreign. Most people shouldn't care, but note the difference, since some places do have local cellular mount points.
