Ted, Are you having troubles with the OpenAFS linux client? Are you using a memory cache? Are you using kernel 2.6? I have been unable to reliably use OpenAFS client 1.3.X + Kernel 2.6 (SuSE SLES and Pro 9 - 9.3) + Memory Cache. I assumed I was the only person with these troubles as I would expect more people to be complaining if it was widespread. When using the above combination, I would see cache corruption and occasional crashes on the client workstations. Switching to a disk cache eliminated all issues. I would be interested in knowing if anyone else is seeing the same problem.
