[OpenAFS-devel] is multihoming supported under openafs these days?

[Martin MOKREJŠ]

Hi,
  I have a server with 3 network interfaces. Can I use the server 3 interfaces
and put for some clients into CellServDB IP address of eth0 or eth1 or eth2 interface
respectively?

  At the moment I thought I use eth2, which corresponds to the hostname.domainname
but what happened is that "vos listvldb" shows IP address of wrong interface (at the
moment not even connected to the network)

[cut]


The hostname is phylo.
The DNS domain is natur.cuni.cz.
The REALM is PHYLO.NATUR.CUNI.CZ (yes, NATUR.CUNI.CZ is used on other machines not under my control).
Therefore, cellname is phylo.natur.cuni.cz.

Could these problem be result of this a bit unusal setup?
Why does "vos listvldb" show wrong interface IP address?
Or does it just blindly use eth0? What if I wouldn't have no eth0 at all
but rather have ra0 (WiFi network card interface)?

phylo ~ # vos listaddrs
192.168.1.254
192.168.2.254
phylo.natur.cuni.cz
phylo ~ # 

phylo ~ # vos help changeaddr
vos changeaddr: change the IP address of a file server 
Usage: vos changeaddr -oldaddr <original IP address> [-newaddr <new IP address>] [-remove] [-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-verbose] [-encrypt] [-help]
Where: -remove     remove the IP address from the VLDB
       -noauth     don't authenticate
       -localauth  use server tickets
       -verbose    verbose
       -encrypt    encrypt commands
phylo ~ # 

This will just maybe set the IP address to the one I wish but can clients talk to the
server processes listening on other NICs as well?
