[OpenAFS-devel] vlserver problems

Hello,

I'm running OpenAFS 1.4.4 on a Linux 2.6.18 server.

I'm having aproblem with my vlserver. In the VLLog, it prints "recovery 
running in state 17" every four minutes. Has some recovery process 
crashed perhaps?

If I try "vos status localhost", it times out:
> erl@sol:/afs/lewin.nu/data$ /usr/sbin/vos status localhost
> Could not access status information about the server
> Possible communication failure
> Error in vos status command.
> Possible communication failure
 However, I can do a "vos listvldb" successfully.  But not create new 
volumes with "vos create"

I've previously had strange problems with my afs setup related to 
multihomed problems.

Can anyone give me a hint as to how to debug this?

Thanks!
