hello again..

earlier this week i had posted a question about slow klog
authentication. we have a small two AFS server situation
where one server is file, pts, db, and kas server and the
other is simply file server.

various folks on the list pointed out one major mistake i
had made: i had defined the file server only machine in the
CellServDB file.

after cleaning up the client side (/usr/vice/etc/)CellServDB
files and using "fs newcell" to fix the in-kernel copy of
CellServDB, "fs listcells" gave me the correct output.

klog sped up a good bit, but i still wasn't 100% happy...

i then remembered the server side (/usr/afs/etc/)CellServDB
files and using "bos listhosts" i saw the server running
file, pts, db, and kas HAD the other file server only machine
in it's CellServDB. the file server only machine was okay.

using "bos removehost" i removed the file server only machine
from the datebase server machine.

klog sped up a bit more, but is still 5-7 seconds...

two days later i still have the main machine (netman) trying to
contact various server process on the file server only 
machine (apskid). i include some tcpdump output for clarity:

 netman.afs3-kaserver > apskid.afs3-kaserver:
 apskid > netman: icmp: apskid udp port afs3-kaserver unreachable

 netman.afs3-vlserver > apskid.afs3-vlserver:
 apskid > netman: icmp: apskid udp port afs3-vlserver unreachable

 netman.afs3-prserver > apskid.afs3-prserver:
 apskid > netman: icmp: apskid udp port afs3-prserver unreachable


anybody got any ideas why this is happening ??? (or is this normal)

thanx,
tim ehrhart
