Here's one that I've yet to find documentation on (and if anybody has 
send it my way! :-))

We have an AFS installation on a relatively low-load high-volume (as in 
storage space requirements) deployment...
2 file servers
1 (seperate) DB server (also running kerberos v5)


We have on the order of 30 users (and adding more, but not substantially 
more), and now two of them (relatively simultaniosly) began experiencing 
the same error in the last couple of days.

Both are fairly new XP machines, with sufficient ram, diskspace, etc.

Anyhow, what happens is that when they login, they're merely presented 
with the oh-so fantastic box "AFS not finished starting, retry / 
cancel"  if you cancel, and use the control applet to start and stop it, 
it "appears" (as in the label changes) to start up... any attempt to 
login however, is greeted with
"AFS service may not be started"

Attached is a 2k afsd_init.log, in which i see nothing terribly out of 
the ordinairy that I see.

If I'm on my desktop, I can auth to either user (given their password), 
and have no issues (other than a changed ACL of course)...

Only other thought, is both of them seem to pop up with the "Offline 
file manager" which seems to be trying to help the system operate in a 
disconnected state....


Any help would be much obliged
