I've been trying to set up an AFS cell and have hit a problem I can't
seem to get around. It's an AMD64 system, using OpenAFS 1.3.82 and a
2.6.8 kernel, all standard Debian testing. Kerberos 5 has been running
for a while, there are no issues with any of that. /vicepa is a sparse
file with an ext2 on it, mounted on loop.
I've basically been following the commands run by the Debian
/usr/sbin/afs-newcell script. I can get through using bos to add a host
and admin, add the admin to the protection database, create the ptserver
and vlserver, and create an fs to run the fileserver, volserver, and
salvager. Everything's normal up until
fermion:~# vos create fermion a root.afs -localauth
and then it hangs. The process is still perfectly polite, it can be
stopped, terminated, etc., it simply doesn't finish executing on its own
or appear to do anything useful. Running a stack trace on it shows it
sending data over the loopback interface once every few seconds. I ran
tethereal on lo, and got streams of
0.000000 192.168.1.1 -> 192.168.1.1 RX ACK Seq: 0 Call: 3 Source

about once every second.
I'd appreciate any ideas. Thanks for your help, and let me know if you
need any other information.
