I had stopped all OpenAFS daemons, turned of 'heartbeat' (which 'moved'
the 192.168.1.254 address to rmgztk). Started the OpenAFS server and
client daemons again and all of a sudden I saw this on the console (about
5 minutes or so after the restart of the daemons):

----- s n i p -----
afs: Lost contact with file server 192.168.1.254 in cell bayour.com (multi-homed address; other same-host interfaces maybe up)
----- s n i p -----


Switching to the console where I've left tcpdump looking at port 7000,
I saw this:

----- s n i p -----

So for some (unknown) reason, it's trying to access 192.168.1.254 instead
of 192.168.1.4 (which is the address of tuzjfi). The fromer address
is unlisted (both in DNS and in /etc/hosts*).



Total purge of OpenAFS and all config files etc, and starting over
(WITH heartbeat turned of) didn't do much difference though...
I still don't get anything from tcpdump (port 7000).
