Hi. :)

Nope, but thought it best to put it on the boot system radar, to track
the status.  If it isn't related, I'll drop the tags again.

I assumed openafs-client would look up its server name using DNS also
in the common case, and thus would want to start after a local DNS
server is operational when such local DNS server is present.  If that
is not true, the dependency on $named would be wrong.  I do not know
if openafs-client will look up server names in DNS, but from its name
I assumed it was a client and they commonly look up servers using DNS
names. :)

If DNS is only needed for the modified script, and never in the common
case, I agree with you.

Happy hacking,
