Hello, I am a total newbie to AFS and I am completely stuck on the install.
I need to familiarize myself with AFS and the client requires that runs on Ubuntu 6.0.6, this is a two part question. I have read the documentation and it says that I have to create a partition on / called /vicepXX, the XX will be replaced by AFS with letters. My first question is: When i create the partition do i call it "/vicep" or do i literally call it "/vicepXX" ? Second: I downloaded the latest source from openafs.org (the source code) since there is no distribution for Ubuntu, untared and did a ./configure and I got these two errors: checking your OS... configure: WARNING: No usable linux headers found at /usr/src/linux so disabling kernel module linux checking your AFS sysname... configure: error: Couldn't guess your Linux version. Please use the --with-afs-sysname option to configure an AFS sysname. I did a uname -a and this is what i get: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/sources/openafs-1.4.4# uname -a Linux ubuntu 2.6.15-26-server #1 SMP Thu Aug 3 04:09:15 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux So, how should I proceed on the installation, if I use the switch --with-afs-sysname, what sysname should I use? Once the configure is done, what are the next steps to get it up and running? the documentation for linux assumes I am using the linux dist not the source so I'm a little lost, if anyone can help me with a step by step configuration it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance Neil W.
