Thank you for the pointer Marcus. I am able to go ahead till cache
initialization.
I rebooted  the PC. as openafs-client is in init.d, it initialises by
default.

When I try to do a klog,I get this error:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# /etc/init.d/openafs-client status
afsd (pid 2714) is running...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cd /afs
[EMAIL PROTECTED] afs]# ls
[EMAIL PROTECTED] afs]# /usr/bin/klog admin
klog: cell name not found Can't get local cell name!
[EMAIL PROTECTED] afs]#

the cell name does not appear in /afs, hence, I believ it is not picking the
CellServDB.

Client side utilities generally look at
       FHS                     transarc
       /etc/openafs            /usr/vice/etc
while server side binaries look at:
       /etc/openafs/server     /usr/afs/etc
Since "bos listhosts" worked, you must have the server side
files right.  Since "bos create" failed, you probably have missing
or incomplete client side files.  Since judging by the prompts
you're actually running this on the server, an easy fix is:
ln -s /usr/afs/etc /usr/vice/etc
which will ensure your client & server binaries see the same
configuration.

You could also leave off "-cell afs1.ca.com" - if you're using
"-noauth" (or "-localauth") with bos, the cell name is not
necessary and can be allowed to default to whatever.
This is why your "bos listhosts" commands immediately preceeding
work.
