Hello!

I am unsure as to what the documentation says, but it is normaly not
necessary to rebuild the kernel. OpenAFS now has working
module-support for Tru64.

If you copy the file afs.mod from root.client/bin in the distribution
tarball into /subsys on your machine and then run "sysconfig -c afs"
you should be able to start afsd.

We should probably rewrite the startscript to reflect this :)
