Hi Derek,

Thanks for your help.

Here go=EAs:

The lsmod command, returns this:

lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by    Tainted: PF=20
libafs-2.4.18-i386    421328   0  (unused)
openafs               421264   0

/afs exists and it's empty.

I've mounted /vicepa doing:

dd if=3D/dev/zero of=3D/var/lib/openafs/vicepa bs=3D1024k count=3D32
mke2fs /var/lib/openafs/vicepa
mkdir /vicepa
mount -oloop /var/lib/openafs/vicepa /vicepa

Can you help me?

Please CC: openafs-info on all responses...

And the insmod succeeds?  You've verified this with "lsmod"?

Does /afs exist?

Did libafs and afsd come from the same source tree?
