Linux 2.6.11.7 on alpha, OpenAFS 1.3.81 Trying to use a heimdal (new enough to have the /proc support) kinit to get tokens; tokens lists none afterwards. Its not impossible that we screwed up and had an old something hanging around that made it not work. > 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. Specifically, I want to store a token for vos. I asked about this on -info a few weeks ago and moose said you only need to have the module loaded for it to work. john _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
