Hello,

I'm trying to install openafs client on a fedora 9 computer.
I installed the rpm's in the www.openafs.org site.
However there is no suitable kmod rpm for my kernel, therefore I don't have
openafs kernel module.

So I built a kernel module from source, and I got a file named "libafs.ko".
I then renamed this file to openafs.ko.
But when I "insmod openafs.ko", lsmod shows libafs, and not openafs.

I belive that is the cause of this error message:

[r...@afs openafs-1.5.56]# /etc/init.d/openafs-client start
Updating CellServDB:
Starting openafs-client: FATAL: Module openafs not found.
failed to load openafs kernel module.                      [FAILED]

Is there any way to build/load "openafs.ko" instead of "libafs.ko"?

uname:
Linux 2.6.27.12-78.2.8.fc9.i686 #1 SMP Mon Jan 19 20:14:35 EST 2009 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Thank you,
