I am seeing that same problem with 1.3.77 on all AIX 4.3.3, AIX 5.1, and AIX 5.2, both 32 and 64 bit kernel. In contrast to previous versions of 1.3, I can at least load the kernel extensions now. Obtaining a token with 1.3.77 'klog' from a kaserver causes a core dump, and trying to use a token obtained with 1.2.10 'klog' results in a system crash.
Yes, I understand that 'klog' and 'kaserver' are considered more or less deprecated, and we are in fact planning to change to a Kerberos 5 setup, but this migration will take us quite some time to complete. Also, we will need continued interoperability with legacy IBM Transarc AFS cells for quite some time to come. So it would be great if 'kaserver' support wasn't silently dropped out of OpenAFS already at this point.
I don't think that has happened but maybe somebody else can comment on that...
So far, I haven't been able to compile ANY version of OpenAFS client to work on AIX 5. The server code might be less problematic as it doesn't involve kernel extensions, but I am also still running 1.2.11 server binaries compiled on AIX 4.3.3 on my AIX 5.2 servers.The stable tree has never had any support for AIX 5, in any way ever. If you try any, please use the CVS version.
