Did you type the commands as listed in the document above, or as listed in
the Gentoo-oriented HowTos? Can you post the complete command you used?

You don't normally need kaserver anymore. You should use Kerberos V instead
(either Heimdahl or MIT, I use MIT).

Looks like you typed the correct commands...

You mean "...is mounted on /vicepa.", right? Why are you using ext2? Since
those partitions can be quite large, I'd go with a journaling fs. I've read
somewhere (I think it was in slides from Alf Wachsman) that xfs would be a
good choice with regard to performance. Personally, I use reiserfs.

Don't know.

I've running it on Gentoo with latest versions of both vanilla kernel and
openafs w/o probs.
