Re: [OpenAFS] OpenAFS in a production environment

[Jeffrey Altman]

Lester: Support for multi-homed servers was added in 1.3.76.   The current version is 1.3.87. The most recent development builds are available at     /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/j/a/jaltman/Public/OpenAFS If you have a chance to test on your network and file bug reports if there are remaining problems it would be appreciated. Jeffrey Altman Lester Barrows wrote: Hi Jeffrey, Our issue most likely has something to do with our servers being multi-homed with both a routable and non-routable IP, the non-routable instance behind a NAT. Explorer tended to freeze pretty often, especially when attempting to open inaccessable directories. Logins were much slower with OpenAFS installed as well, adding as much as a two minute pause. I'm pretty sure I saw a message from you a while ago stating that the functionality for dealing with the former issue wasn't yet in the Windows client. As it seemed to be a known issue at the time, I didn't pursue it further. We mostly use Linux and a bit on Solaris with OpenAFS, so as I mentioned it isn't really critical for our purposes. If you want bug reports though, I can put together a Windows test system. Our network is probably a bit of a torture test (minefield really) for the client.

The Windows issue is probably due to our network configuration, and may not apply to you. Windows isn't critical to our use of AFS though. Lester: What Windows issue are you facing? Have you submitted a bug report for it? Jeffrey Altman .
