A further question :

I tried to copy the binaries(root.client) into /afs/cellname/  ... but I
realise that I do not have write permissions there !

A listing of /afs/engin.umich.edu :
lrwxr-xr-x    1 496      root           12 Feb  3  2000 afs ->
/usr/src/afs
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         2048 Dec 14  2000 caen
-rw-r--r--    1 daemon   wheel          17 Feb 15  2000 cds.afs.proxy
drwxr-xr-x    6 root     root         2048 Apr 27 12:03 class
drwxr-xr-x    4 root     root         8192 May 14 10:34 contrib
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         2048 Jul 22  1999 group
drwxr-xr-x    4 root     root         2048 Feb  2  1995 system
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         2048 Sep 16  1999 u
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4096 Dec  8  2000 um
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         2048 Jul 16  1996 ummu
lrwxr-xr-x    1 bin      root            1 Dec 13  1991 user -> u

So, where do I put the binaries ?

Thanks,

Madhusudan Singh.
