Has anyone got AFS working on suse 9.2 using their afs client? I had to fix a script (it searched for kernel module libafs, actually the one shipped with suse is called kafs) but anyway, afsd isn't starting:

Is kafs the OpenAFS implementation or something else?


kafs is the (broken) Linux Kernel AFS implementation.  It is not
OpenAFS, does not work with OpenAFS' afsd, and if you build kafs you
will lose badly.

SuSE 9.2 has the openafs client in its distribution. After running YOU you also schould get a working version. You should run it with -memcache to avoid the bug which fills up the cache partition, I think it's not corrected there. I replaced in /etc/sysconfig/afs-client the following:

XXLARGE="-stat 4000 -daemons 6 -volumes 256 -fakestat -blocks 262144"
XLARGE="-stat 3600 -daemons 5 -volumes 196 -fakestat -blocks 133072"
LARGE="-stat 2800 -daemons 5 -volumes 128 -fakestat -blocks 65536"
MEDIUM="-stat 2000 -daemons 3 -volumes 70 -fakestat -blocks 32768"
SMALL="-stat 300 -daemons 2 -volumes 50 -fakestat -blocks 16384"

MEMCACHE="yes"

You may also add -chunksize 20 if you have enough memory because it makes the client much faster (otherwise it does an rpc for each 8 K
for read).
