I will inquire if the university can provide a build-host with AIX7 on our former PowerPC-server. This may or may not be feasible, according to administrative policies or product licenses. The options used are ## ./configure -with-afs-sysname=rs_aix61 --enable-tivoli-tsm \\ --enable-transarc-paths --disable-pam --includedir=/usr/include ## After copying the binaries manually to /usr/afs/ and /usr/vice/etc/ according to https://wiki.openafs.org/archive/HowToBuildOpenAFSFromSource/ and executing rc.afs, the server freezes and reboots.
