On my site we do not use CellServDB since we belive that AFSDB-rr in DNS is much better. So we do only map up cells in /afs which have a valid AFSDB-rr in DNS, this is an at least 10 year old standard. So if you choose an cellname where you will not be able to add an AFSDB-rr in DNS lets say "idontlikedots", we will never map your cell in our /afs which prevent our users from accessing your cell. So if you ever want to add AFSDB-rr in DNS ,which i recommend, i would pick a cellname that in "in" your domain. /Jimmy _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
