Hi folks, I'm using the openafs-1.2.8-24 rpm from the 8.2 distribution on 8.1 Pro and have noticed a few problems (maybe 8.1 related, maybe not) and wonder if anybody using 8.2 has experienced similar problems: 1) openafs-1.2.9a (stock) will not compile the client against the SuSE kernel. I can only assume that some SuSE modification to the kernel or glibc is the cause of this. This is why i'm using the rpm from 8.2 (recompiled the source rpm) which seems to include patches to work with the SuSE kernel. The server daemons from stock openafs-1.2.9a compile and run fine. 2) /etc/init.d/afs-client seems a little funny: choose_afsdoptions() { if [ "x$OPTIONS" = "x" -o "x$OPTIONS" = "xAUTOMATIC" ]; then if [ $CACHESIZE -lt 131072 ]; then OPTIONS=$SMALL elif [ $CACHESIZE -lt 524288 ]; then OPTIONS=$MEDIUM elif [ $CACHESIZE -lt 1048576 ]; then OPTIONS=$LARGE elif [ $CACHESIZE -lt 2097152 ]; then OPTIONS=$XLARGE else OPTIONS=$XXLARGE fi fi if [ "$MEMCACHE" = "yes" ]; then AFSD_OPTIONS="$OPTIONS -memcache" fi if [ "$VERBOSE" = "yes" ]; then AFSD_OPTIONS="$OPTIONS -verbose" fi } It seems like if you don't use a memory cache or verbose and don't use AUTOMATIC, then the options you set in /etc/sysconfig/afs-client, AFSD_OPTIONS doesn't get added to $OPTIONS. I think there should be a AFSD_OPTIONS="$OPTIONS" at the end there, but i'm not much of a shell scripter. Also: if rpmqpack xntp then AFSD_OPTIONS="$AFSD_OPTIONS -nosettime"? Has a disk cache been tested? (see #3) 3) once you make the modifications to /etc/init.d/afs-client or indeed if you run /usr/sbin/afsd manually, it seems that a disk cache will not work. I get a segmentation fault just after afsd creates it's directories in the cache. I've tried a 50MB cache just in the root partition (reiserfs), also a few different sized caches with filesystems mounted via the loop device of types ext2 and reiserfs. I've ended up just using the memory cache, but I think a larger (ala 3Gig) disk cache is a better choice, so I'm a little dissapointed. Is anybody out there running 8.2 with openafs and using a disk cache? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, -Ben
