not strictly a rush question but I 'm hoping somebody here has the answer. 

Why does OS X sometimes add a -1 to a mounted volume name? It hits us when using rush and boxes on the farm naturally can't resolve

/server/foo/bar-1/submit-maya.pl

when the correct path should be:

/server/foo/bar-1/submit-maya.pl

artists can't see it in the finder. i.e the share appears to the correct name. But if you look at it in terminal it shows up with the -1 attached. Indeed if we inspect /Volumes we see the duplicate names. 

/Volumes/bar
/Volumes/bar-1
