Thank you both Jeffrey and Mickey for your insight and detailed replies. In my excitement at seeing the new release, I didn't look at the release notes--apparently this is a recently-isolated issue. I know I'd read the release notes on the previous versions but didn't this time.
As I'm a bit busy at the moment I probably won't experiment with this further for a while, but I'm glad the issue is documented so it will be clear when the problem is eliminated. It sounds like there are several possible workarounds. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jeffrey Altman Sent: Thursday, July 08, 2010 9:01 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [OpenAFS] OpenAFS / Explorer hang when disabling/enabling NIC On 7/8/2010 9:52 AM, Mickey Lane wrote: > Something you can try: > > > > In Network and Sharing Center, > > Change adapter settings, > > AFS loopback properties, > > Check “Link-layer Topology..” boxes (2) > > Save & reboot > > Repeat your experiment and when AFS fails, wait 3-5 minutes to see if it > recovers. On the Microsoft Loopback Adapter the only protocols that need to be active are: . Client for Microsoft Networks .
