The /proc/fs/openafs ioctl stuff for afs syscall doesn't work on Linux 2.6 if afsd isn't actually running. This is a pain since it means you can't get tokens without a client running.

Any chance you could be more specific? What versions of Linux and OpenAFS are you using? Exactly what AFS syscall did you try to make, and what error did you get? What program made the call, and where did the binary come from?


Given that afsd uses that interface to set up the cache manager, I find it extremely unlikely that it doesn't work before the CM setup is complete. However, there is no reason to expect operations other than those related to CM setup and fileserver support to operate under these conditions.
