It occurred to me that OpenAFS is only one step away from a zero-configuration afs client. For a site that uses AFSDB, you can enable dynroot by default on install, and the only remaining configuration option is what to use for ThisCell.
If there were a configuration-free client scenario, OpenAFS would probably have a better chance of getting shipped by-default by more linux distributions, and by Apple (in Mac OS X)....
When you are using dynroot you really don't need to have a ThisCell. At least not for the AFS client. ThisCell is primarily used to determine which cell is used to obtain the root.afs volume.

it also can be used to determine what cell to get tokens for by things like pam, and aklog.
