0. I notice that the 2.6 kernel has a 'read-only' AFS module. Sounds dodgy to me. Comments?
This is not OpenAFS. And while it is capable of making RPC's to AFS fileservers, it does not really implement the semantics of AFS. I used to know details, but I've forgotten and don't care enough to look again.
1. Is 2.6 RW support going to happen any time soon? Like weeks, months, years?
Weeks? No. Months? Maybe.
3. Does the server need to be able to mount its own AFS volumes or can it happily function without the kernel module and have its volumes populated by a client?
On Linux, the fileserver will work just fine without a kernel module.
