Thanks for that. I'm still seeing some weirdness where even when i have 
my afs token, I'm treated as anonymous or anyuser, and cannot read my 
own files when the directory has acls limiting access.

I should mention that I previously attempted to rebuild the RPM myself 
from the src.rpm here: 
http://dl.openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.4.6/openafs-1.4.6-1.3.src.rpm

and although I was able to build both the module, as well as the client 
and server rpms, when I delved into the rpmbuild output, it indicated an 
error in trying to build kdump-linux-2.6.24.4-64.fc8.o.  Can you check 
your rpmbuild output and see if that is also the case for you?  If not, 
I'm not sure what I could be doing wrong.  The system I'm trying to 
rebuild the rpm on is a pristine vanilla Fedora-8 system

Thanks
Kambiz
