206.0. "I m having trouble with workon" by SMURF::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Tue Jul 13 1993 14:43

Subj: 	I'm having trouble with workon

They have changed the mount point on quarry (where I do my workons) of
my home directory exported from Krisis and this is giving me problems
getting my workon sessions started.  The directory used to be mounted
on quarry as /usr/staff/kr4/clark, but is now mounted as /home/clark.

Here is a recent attempt at starting a workon session:

/home/clark/testbin /home/clark/bin /usr/sde/tools/alpha_osf/bin /usr/ucb /bin /usr/bin /usr/bin/X11 /usr/local /usr/new /usr/hosts /usr/include . /usr/dec

Here is the contents of my ~/.sandboxrc.  Note that I have manually
added the value of base maint and editted the value of base * to point
to the proper directory names (as shown below) before the above run.
Is it possible, that some other file, not in my area has the directory
name of my maint sandbox in it?  If so, how can I correct this
problem, without losing the precious files I have in my maint sandbox?

	# sandbox rc file created by mksb

	# default sandbox

	# base directories to sandboxes

Chris,

There are basically two steps to fix this problem:

1.  Edit your ~/.sandboxrc file and change all occurrences of:
	/usr/staff/kr4/clark
    to
	/home/clark

    (it appears that you have already done this step)

2.  For each sandbox that you have edit the rc_files/shared file (for
    example /home/clark/sandboxes/maint/rc_files/shared) and for the 
    variable "sandbox_base" change /usr/staff/kr4 to /home.

Send more mail if that doesn't fix your problem.
/Carolyn
