Well, the good news is that I can now refer to my machines by name and not just by IP address.
The bad news is that the automatic AFS login now seems to be broken (klog still works, though) on the server machine, and I'm still getting the same error as before on the client machine (lost connection to file server at 127.0.0.1). Any other ideas?

Anyway, I've just updated the /etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/hosts (to provide static mappings since I don't have a DNS server or even a legitimate domain) on both machines. Both are rebooting. I'll let yas know if it fixes anything. :) Rich -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Derrick J Brashear Sent: Friday, October 03, 2003 6:05 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [OpenAFS] AFS Client for Linux trying to contact server at localhost instead of address in CellServDB On Fri, 3 Oct 2003, Eggert, Richard W, II (Rich), GVSOL wrote: > On both machines, hostname returned localhost.localdomain. That's no good. Resolving the hostname would then return 127.0.0.1. One of the files in /etc/sysconfig (network, I think) should have the real hostname set in it. If it doesn't, fix it and reboot. _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
