Hi Andy,

Thanks for looking into this.

Hmmh, it's a normal CMSSW job so I'll have to look what's happening there ... or 
Brian might chime in as he already knows :) I had a blind spot over prepare 
functionality until now :( so I have some reading/grepping to do.

It's a single file I'm asking for ... but cmssw supports a list of input files 
and the code probably handles both cases in the same way.

Nope, I don't have a static redirect. It's all "cmsd propagated".

All seems the same ... and it's the same machine, two xrootd/cmsd pairs running 
on different ports :)

I think I extracted all that is pertinent in the original email, at the 
data-server the log is boring, just auth, grant ... and then disc half an hour 
later.

Could it be it's just the prepare that is failing? Anyway ... I have to read up 
on this and see how this is handled in cmssw.

And probably the right way to "fix" this is to tune up GUMS / authentication to 
properly expose this namespace to local users (there was some limitation in GUMS 
a year or so back that made me configure the whole thing this way, I remember now).
