On the SuSE 9.2 systems (about 5) that I'm running with the SuSE 
provided openafs, the kernel module is libafs in 
/lib/modules/2.6.8-24.5-default/extra/libafs.ko, which is part of the 
kernel-default-nongpl rpm. It's still an odd package setup, but it 
generally works. They've made one update to the openafs package that I 
installed with yast2. I've seen the disk-cache non-truncation bug in the 
original version, but not in the updated version (yet). And I've got one 
system that will periodically get really cranky and won't live long 
enough to put up the xdm greeting window (it hangs).

Has anyone got AFS working on suse 9.2 using their afs client? I had to
fix a script (it searched for kernel module libafs, actually the one
shipped with suse is called kafs) but anyway, afsd isn't starting:
    <br>
    <br>
plm02:~ # /etc/init.d/afs-client start
    <br>

    <br>

    <br>
afsd: No check server daemon in client.
    <br>

Your kernel module doesn't work ... if it is loaded properly ...
  <br>
You don't get any AFS syscall processed.
  <br>
  <br>
Call 17 isn't doing that much dangerous stuff so if the module is
working it should be able to execute it.
