Russ, I'm fairly sure this hasn't been fixed.  It was discussed
recently on zephyr.

Bug#88906: /afs goes ENOTDIR eventually, on first client+server install before reboot

Hi Mark,

I'm going through the old Debian bug reports on the OpenAFS package.  You
filed the below bug report a little over four years ago, against a much
older version of the package with a much older kernel:

| Installed via task-boxedp-server, single host afs server, client on
| same machine; created a user volume, used rsync to shovel a bunch of
| files over -- and then noticed I couldn't stat /afs:
|   $ \ls /afs/
|   ls: /afs/: Not a directory
| and df still showed
| AFS900 0   900   0% /afs
| 
| on shutdown, it turned out that K18openafs-client failed to unmount /afs
| before the server shutdown, and afterwards the later run of some
| script also failed but with couldn't contact server.
| 
| Nothing obvious appeared in dmesg, the console, or /var/log/openafs/*,
| unless the line
|Thu Mar  8 11:16:54 2001: Server directory access is not okay
| has anything to do with it (not sure if that happenned during the
| install or later, but include it for completeness.)
| 
| Rebooted and the problem hasn't recurred; hartmans suggested it was
| a first-time-install problem that had been seen before.  I could
| probably test that on this machine (under 2.2.18) at some point if it
| would help.

There is now a much newer version of OpenAFS in Debian testing (and a
newer version, for that matter, in Debian stable), and there have been a
multitude of bug fixes since then.  Are you still having this problem with
current versions of OpenAFS?

Please let me know if so; otherwise, my inclination is to close this bug
given the vintage of OpenAFS against which it was reported.
