[OpenAFS] AFS Client for Linux trying to contact server at localhost instead of address in CellServDB

[Richard Eggert II]

Well, the good news is that I can now refer to my machines by name and =
not
just by IP address.

The bad news is that the automatic AFS login now seems to be broken =
(klog
still works, though) on the server machine, and I'm still getting the =
same
error as before on the client machine (lost connection to file server at
127.0.0.1).

Any other ideas?

Why would it be trying to resolve the hostname?

Anyway, I've just updated the /etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/hosts (to
provide static mappings since I don't have a DNS server or even a =
legitimate
domain) on both machines.  Both are rebooting.  I'll let yas know if it
fixes anything. :)

That's no good. Resolving the hostname would then return 127.0.0.1.

One of the files in /etc/sysconfig (network, I think) should have the =
real
hostname set in it. If it doesn't, fix it and reboot.
