Hmmm - then something is broken here.  A 'pts listentries' fails without 
a valid CellServDB, while afsd & fs seem perfectly happy to run with 
just an entry for our local cell:

CellServDB contains just:
 >spawar.navy.mil        #SPAWAR Charleston, SC

and we get this:
[root@flamingo etc]# pts listentries
Name                          ID  Owner Creator
pts: no servers appear to be up ; unable to list entries

I have to list all of the servers for that command to work.  However, fs 
seems happy:

[root@flamingo etc]# fs getserverprefs -vlservers
bandicoot.spawar.navy.mil                          10070
hyena.spawar.navy.mil                              10101
ichneuman.spawar.navy.mil                          10114
jackal.spawar.navy.mil                             10029
anaconda.spawar.navy.mil                           10066

The AFSDB records work for all other cases, including the Windows 1.3.71 
client(s) we have.
