		Physical disks (per modification date)

   We use somewhat wierd internal software to display out users a view
of our filesystem which has some resemblance to the real one, but which
actually is not..  Non-anonymous non-guest users can see what this means.


Public archive is at mountpoint

	/ftp

which actually is a small directory with some control files, several
symlinks,  subdirs  pub, bin,  and etc,  and  naturally  subdirs for
mountpoints of real archive disks.

Physical disks have relative symlinks on them to  "../pub/<non_local_dir>"
for all those directories, which are not in there, but rather on some
other disk.  This way your average user can do: "cd /pub/msdos", "dir .."
and don't know immediately that he didn't go to the real "/pub" at all..

Physical disks and their physical subdirs (excluding  lost+found) are:
