-Enable afsdb support. This will use DNS to lookup the AFSDB record and use
-that for the database servers for each cell instead of the values in the
-F<CellServDB> file. This has the advantage of only needing to update one
-DNS record to reconfigure the AFS clients for a new database server as
-opposed to touching all of the clients, and also allows one to access a
