Hi
    I get the following response :
[root@guo /root]# lsmod

usbcore                49664   1  [usb-uhci]

AFS kernel module is thus not loaded.

My kernel version is 2.4.2-2. Where is this symbolic link supposed to be
created ?

I used the following rpm's :
[root@guo /root]# rpm -q --all | grep "openafs"
openafs-kernel-1.0.4-24.2
openafs-client-1.0.4-24.2
openafs-1.0.4-24.2

These were the latest ones on the website for RH Linux 7.1.

Thanks,
