[OpenAFS] OpenAFS on Linux 2.5.x

The previous note about aix seemed to have a useful set.  Seems like:

set pag
	should be able to use two ways - as admin, set a particular pag
- to join one that already exists
	as admin or regular user - request a new pag to be allocated
get pag
validate pag


I tend to wonder if the pags should be shared across all facilities, or
if there should be a pag class - to allow a process to be in one pag for
afs, and another different pag for nfs?
