Thanks -- that resolved that mystery.

Is the quick start guide just out of date?  How are we, as a community,
maintaining it?   The RHEL section also tells you to download
"openafs-kernel-*", but the actual rpms are named "kmod-openafs-*".
Nowhere does it tell you to download and install "openafs-krb5".

If someone points me at the source for the documentation, I'd be happy to
submit patches.  I think there are some other subtle inaccuracies as well,
like requiring the -cell argument to the bos command, when using -noauth.
Unless I'm just wrong on that last point :-P
