[OpenAFS] weird problem... can't add a third DB server for pt server

Hi Nathan -

What this looks like is that when you added server C to the CellServDB's,
the ptserver instances on all 3 machines were not restarted.

My suggestion is to restart the ptserver process on all 3 database
machines.

Thanks,

Mindy

This is what I get on C after adding C to CellServDB and starting ptserver
on it with no prdb* files in /usr/afs/db.

---------------------------

One thing that is very interesting is that on all three servers - the
"lowest host was set" has the wrong IP. It has the local host's ip, which
is
a little odd.
