No, I did create an fs volume on /vicepa and mounted root.afs on /vicepa :


./vos create  omega.mit.edu /vicepa root.afs

root@omega:/usr/afs/bin# ./bos status omega.mit.edu fs -long -noauth
Instance fs, (type is fs) currently running normally.
    Auxiliary status is: file server running.
    Process last started at Thu Jul  7 17:49:03 2005 (2 proc starts)
    Command 1 is '/usr/afs/bin/fileserver'
    Command 2 is '/usr/afs/bin/volserver'
    Command 3 is '/usr/afs/bin/salvager'

root@omega:/usr/afs/bin# cd /vicepa
root@omega:/vicepa# ls
AFSIDat/  Lock/  V0536870912.vol  lost+found/

Now /afs is created from the contents of CellServDB (which I guess is what you 
mean by dynroot). Is it then possible to bypass this and make sure that the 
client (on the server machine itself as I suggested in my last email) mounts 
root.afs
