[OpenAFS-devel] make check failures when built on afs

[Troy Benjegerdes]

I forgot part of my excercise:

run the tests on an AFS filesystem from a machine that is 
running (production) AFS server instances. The runtests -o 
output shows a couple of IP addreses from my servers.

I see the auth/superuser failure on a number of machines
that work just fine as AFS clients.

It looks like your vos failure is because your machine's network stack is setup with the machine's hostname resolving to a loopback address. As this isn't a valid configuration for a ubik server, any ubik test (which includes the volser/vos test) will fail.
