The error indicates that none of the Volume Location DB servers for your cell are accessible. According to DNS AFSDB records there is only one AFSDB server. If communication between the client and the VLDB server is not possible at the time the location of a volume needs to be determined, all access to that volume will fail. The volume for which location information is required is root.cell. Therefore, no path in the iqo.uni-hannover.de cell will successfully be evaluated. The next question is afs1.iqo.uni-hannover.de either not reachable or not responding to queries from this machine. The wireshark capture will help you with that. Jeffrey Altman
