[OpenAFS] help: klog: error reading cell database

I am running debian testing with kernel 2.4.27, and am having a problem 
using openafs as a normal user. I have compiled and installed 
openafs-modules-source, and installed openafs-client, 
libpam-openafs-session, etc., and the module loads and the daemons start 
fine at startup. As root, I can then run klog and log in to the AFS 
server without a problem, but as a normal user, I get this error message:

klog: error reading cell database Can't get local cell name!

This seems to be a permissions problem, but I don't know where: I've 
chmoded CellServDB and ThisCell in /etc/openafs but that didn't work.

Thanks,
Patrick
