> You could simply revert to Mac OS 10.3. Or are you on 10.3? One user was originally on an installation of 10.3 that had been rock solid for a long time. I installed 1.4.1rc6-for-Panther on it and it kernel panicked left and right (no blame for this; it's a release candidate so I probably should've been using 1.4.0). Going back to 10.3 isn't really an option at this point -- AFS isn't important enough to these people to warrant reinstalling an older version of their OS. > There is no released client for Tiger, Yes, that's why I'm interested in a kludge like cranking down the timeout. At least until there is a released client. More generally, though, I have a feeling that because of the busted design of the finder, even a "perfect" Tiger client is going to cause totally unrelated stuff to go out to lunch for whatever the timeout period is set to. I've noticed that if you have an AFS folder-window open, you shut down, and then boot back up on a strange network (say, private network with no access to the Internet) the Finder will pout at you for a good five minutes after you log in. - a -- PGP/GPG: 5C9F F366 C9CF 2145 E770 B1B8 EFB1 462D A146 C380 _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
