It is just what I noticed.
The second time when OpenAFS didn't start, there's no output from the OpenAFS init script at all, which to me points to this not being a problem with the OpenAFS package itself and instead is a problem with something else on your system that's causing your init scripts to not always be run. The only time the init script would run and not produce at least some output is if your /etc/openafs/afs.conf.client file says to not start the client (which it doesn't appear to) or if /sbin/afsd doesn't exist in your system. > I see openafs-client and dnsmasq are both s21. Does anything break the > tie or is that why they are started in different orders some time? Shouldn't make any difference which order they're started in. When OpenAFS doesn't start at boot, does running /etc/init.d/openafs-client start as root after the system starts work? > Versions of packages openafs-client recommends: > ii 4.81.dfsg.1-1 List open files > ii 1.4.11+dfsg-6+2.6.30.091211-10.00.Cu AFS distributed filesystem > kernel > ii 1.4.11+dfsg-6+2.6.32.100131-10.00.Cu AFS distributed filesystem > kernel > ii 1.4.11+dfsg-6+2.6.32.100210-10.00.Cu AFS distributed filesystem > kernel > ii 1.4.11+dfsg-6+2.6.32.100315-10.00.Cu AFS distributed filesystem > kernel > ii 1.4.12.1+dfsg-1+2.6.32.100608-10.00.
