[OpenAFS-devel] openafs on Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 3

[Ken Kahn]

I'm trying to install openafs 1.2.11 on an AMD64 running Red Hat =
Enterprise
Linux WS release 3.  I downloaded openafs-1.2.11-src and after unloading =
ran

 ./configure --enable-transarc-paths          \
             --with-afs-sysname=3Damd64_linux24 \
             --with-linux-kernel-headers=3D/usr/src/linux-2.4.21-4.EL

After running make (gcc v3.2.3) the following were created in modload

   libafs-2.4.21-4.EL.mp.o  libafs-2.4.21-4.EL.o

which matches the linux-kernel-headers directory name, but neither of =
which
exactly match the system's kernel release (uname -r =3D 2.4.21-4.ELsmp), =
which
is another issue maybe someone can explain (should they match?).

Running "/etc/rc.d/init.d/afs start" results in

  AFS module /usr/vice/etc/modload/libafs-2.4.21-4.ELsmp.mp.o does not =
exist.

So I copied libafs-2.4.21-4.EL.mp.o to libafs-2.4.21-4.ELsmp.mp.o; the =
error
message changes to

  insmod: a module named libafs-2.4.21-4.ELsmp.mp already exists

What do I need to do to get this working.
