I hope this is the right list to ask for help with installtion.  If not, 
please point me in the right direction.

I have installed openafs on a fresh install of Redhat 7.2.  The command I 
issued was:

apt-get install openafs-kernel openafs-krb5 openafs-client openafs-devel 
openafs-kpasswd openafs openafs-compat

This appeared to run fine.

I was also instructed to install these files in /usr/vice/etc/modload/

libafs-2.4.9-21-athlon.mp.o  libafs-2.4.9-21-i386.o 
libafs-2.4.9-21-i686.ep.o  libafs-2.4.9-31.mp.o
libafs-2.4.9-21-athlon.o     libafs-2.4.9-21-i586.mp.o 
libafs-2.4.9-21-i686.mp.o  libafs-2.4.9-31.o
libafs-2.4.9-21-i386.mp.o    libafs-2.4.9-21-i586.o     libafs-2.4.9-21-i686.o

But when I try to start afs thus:

/etc/init.d/afs start

The following error occurs:

AFS module /usr/vice/etc/modload/libafs-2.4.7-10.o does not exist. Not 
starting AFS.

I find it odd that afs is looking for a file that appears to be an older 
version of what is there.  I'm doing this from a set of instructions that 
are not step by step and being a newbie to this and various other linux 
related things I'm not sure what I need to do.

Where do I go for help?

Thanx,
