thanks Jeffrey,

I changed the afs.rc script to

KERNEL_VERSION=`uname -r | sed 's/smp//g'`

and it now tries to load the right module that was created

I'll move to 1.4.0-rc8 now. ;)  Thanks for the clarification

OpenAFS currently uses the Linux numbering scheme in which odd minor
releases are unstable and even minor releases are stable.  Therefore,
1.4.0 is the new stable branch and after 1.4.0 is announced a 1.5.0
unstable series will begin.

I can't answer your linux question but I can point out that 1.4.0-rc8
supercedes 1.3.87 by nine releases. You should be using 1.4.0-rc8 and
not 1.3.87 for any work you are currently doing.

I'm having an issue with openafs-1.3.87.  I've compiled it on the
following type of system:

$ Linux H2STBiznode02 2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp #1 SMP Thu Jun 30 10:52:34
CDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

when I try to start openafs (during a client install) I get the following:

AFS module /usr/vice/etc/modload/libafs-2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp.mp.o does
not exist. Not starting AFS.

My question is... how do I tell ./configure to build me a smp version
of the openafs module? I've done this:

$ ./configure --enable-transarc-paths --enable-smp

but I'm not sure if that is anywhere close to  being correct.

also when 1.40 is final and out will it be the current stable release
or will it be unstable release.  the reason I ask is I'm going to be
going production with openafs in the next 3 weeks and I'm wondering if
I should do openafs-1.2.13 or openafs-1.3.87 or openafs-1.4.

thanks,

Pucky
