No, you don't see anything in the filesystem - these are nameserver entries only. When you transfer stuff into the DPM then you get files appearing in, e.g., se01:/pool/data/lcg/VO/YYYY-MM-DD/file.NN.XX where NN (I think) corresponds to the index of the DPNS entry, and XX is probably a replica number (always 0 at the moment). Anyway, we're a long way from there... Have you tried, on se01, "rfdir se01:/tmp"? This should just list the real /tmp directory on se01. Then try, e.g., "rfcp /etc/group se01:/tmp". It should transfer the file. If this fails then something is seriously wrong with rfiod (check /etc/shift.conf?). However, if that works, try the same rfdir and rfcp from a UI, with your grid certificate initialised. And we'll see how it goes... graeme -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr Graeme Stewart http://www.physics.gla.ac.uk/~graeme/ GridPP DM Wiki http://wiki.gridpp.ac.uk/wiki/Data_Management
