After the problems with the fs command, I started all over with the 
config, again following the documentation ... fs now works fine without 
any problems, but now I can't authentiate anymore ... The amdin/afs 
users are created as far as I can tell ...

ka> list
AuthServer.Admin
krbtgt.FILES
afs
admin
ka> examine admin

User data for admin (ADMIN)
   key (0) cksum is 1099486275, last cpw: Sun Dec 19 10:05:58 2004
   password will never expire.
   An unlimited number of unsuccessful authentications is permitted.
   entry never expires.  Max ticket lifetime 25.00 hours.

   permit password reuse

  # klog admin
Password:
Unable to authenticate to AFS because user doesn't exist.
  # cat /usr/local/etc/openafs/server/UserList
admin

It must be reading the user data correctly, as it can notice a mistyped 
password:
  # klog admin
Password:
Unable to authenticate to AFS because password was incorrect.

Where can I look to find the reason for this?

Tnx, -gg
