They also offer the SRPM file so you can build the kernel module for some other kernel. It works great here. Right now, the client I run some RPMS I built myself because I was testing the koji kernels, but I think the standard updated fedora would only need: openafs-1.4.6-1.4f8.pj openafs-client-1.4.6-1.4f8.pj openafs-kernel-1.4.6-2.6.23.15_137.fc8_1 i'll make these available to you if you want. I Will put in http://pj.freefaculty.org/Fedora/i386/kups/packages. In these packages, I've hacked the site setup so that it works for my site. This way, I don't have to go around and customize all lab computers. If you look in the spec file, you'll see some stuff I put in there to set those values, you can fiddle for your purpose. We don't use the power that afs offers to link together all different universities and such, so I don't have that whole web of servers enabled. But you can. If you use the RPM from the openafs.org, it will be a stock installation. The openafs guys do have the spec file set up with a fedora option to build kernel module kmod-openafs package, but I've been using this so long that all our systems look for openafs-kernel and so I don't use the special fedora packaging. pj -- Paul E.
