Hi all,
We are having problems while installing the first afs server machine on
scientific linux 4.4 .we have used afs server and client rpms for
installation.

4.4 is ancient. If it still has to be SL4, why not at least 4.5? And if it doesn't, I'd really recommend 5.1 for a new AFS server. It comes with packages for the latest OpenAFS release. SL4.x will get those a bit later.

which rpms? i suggest the 1.4.6 rpms on the openafs.org web site, if you get
rhel4 rpms we should even have a module for your kernel.

He's probably using the SL RPMs. Gaurav, if that's true, this discussion should be taken over to the scientific-linux-users list since the init script has been quite different from the one in the openafs.org packages for a while. We'll send you back here once we've sorted out the issues specific to SL ;-) And just to be sure: This is not a recommendation not to grab and use the EL4 packages from openafs.org instead of the ones coming with SL. But whichever you use, it would be best to address the corresponding mailing list first with these questions.

[Axel, it's your turn now to advertise the ATRPMs packages...]

we got stuck just at the start of " the completing the installation of
first afs machine "steps as per the open afs documentation present on web.
After rebooting the machine using shutdown -r now when i type
/etc/rc.d/init/afs start   i get the error

afs: Unable to reach 172.20.53.249 ...
afs: Unable to reach AFS servers.
Not starting FATAL: Module libafs not found.

no module, no client.

Right. The other messages probably mean that the server wasn't started either.
