Hi John,

gfmkdir gfarm:~ creates your home directory '/jas' in Gfarm file system.
When you use syscall hooking library, it is '/gfarm/jas' since syscall
hooking library emulates to mount at /gfarm.  When you are using gfarmfs
it is <mount_point>/jas.

I cannot catch your point.  If you cannot create a file in Gfarm file system,
probably authentication to gfsd fails.  You can make sure by 'gfhost -lv'.
The second column shows the authentication status.  See testing section
of http://datafarm.apgrid.org/software/latest/SETUP.en.txt for details.

Thanks,
Osamu
