NAME

       atNetworkPath, atLocalPath - network path handling

SYNOPSIS

       #include <atfs.h>
       #include <atfstk.h>

       char* atNetworkPath (Af_key *aso);

       char* atLocalPath (char *networkPath);

DESCRIPTION

       atNetworkPath  returns  a  network  wide  unique  pathname  for  aso. The pathname has the
       following structure
                               <hostname>:<canonical_pathname>@<version>.
       Hostname is the name of the  host  controlling  the  device,  where  aso  is  stored.  the
       canonical  pathname  is  the  real  pathname (without symbolic links), where the object is
       located on that host.  The version  number,  including  the  introducing  at-sign  (@)  is
       optional. For busy versions, it may be missing or the string busy

       atLocalPath  maps  a  network path name to a local path name. When the host information in
       the network path denotes a remote host, atLocalPath looks up /etc/mtab for  a  mapping  of
       the network canonical pathname to a local path. The resulting pathname is a local pathname
       in bound notation
                                          <pathname>[version]
       with the version number added in brackets. It may be converted into an ASO  descriptor  by
       calling atBindVersion (manual page atbind(3)).

RETURN VALUE

       Both  functions  return  the  resulting  string  in  static  memory.  The  result  will be
       overwritten on a subsequent call. On failure, a null pointer is returned.
