Just read the archive and see how many times Derek gives highly valuable
hints and solutions for all kind of problems. Then think if introducing
oneself to a new community by offending people is a wise idea.

And an openafs beginner does not stumble across this problem, because he
follows the documentation which says:

"Note: In the following and every instruction in this guide, for the
 machine name argument substitute the fully-qualified hostname (such as
 fs1.abc.com) of the machine you are installing. For the cell name
 argument substitute your cell's complete name (such as abc.com)."
