In fact here is the howto

It works fine for me on 3.7.

If you have any questions let me know.
So far it seems to be very stable for me.
YMMV

Hello.

I am having problems with arla. 2 of 3 reboots the afsd will be running but

$ cd /afs
ksh: cd: /afs - Not a directory

I did not see this problem on 3.7. I did start to see it on my home pc but took it as a fluke because of the amount of problems I have with that machine. Today I installed OpenBSD 3.8-current (GENERIC) #159: Tue Sep 27 22:21:33 MDT 2005

on my laptop (that have been rock solid with 3.7) and see the problem
imediatly.

hi Jan,

I can't speak from experience, I'm not running -current on OpenBSD with OpenAFS yet.

my only issues in several months of reasonably heavy arla usage has been with physical disk IO errors, and then needing to flush the cache afterwards.

try rm -rf /var/spool/afs before restarting arla next time, and also using these arla flags in your rc.* somewhere.

afs=YES
afsd_flags="--log=/var/log/arlad.log --recover"

maybe this will help get more info, & also ensure a clean startup.

can you determine if you always have the issue accessing a file from cache, or not? fs flush* may help here as well.

cheers, scorch
