Ok, a bit complicated here, on debian just 1.3.x versions, on RedHat 9.x and
fedora the 1.2.x versions... there aren't any useful files for fedora 1 or 2 of
OpenAFS 1.3.x which are not source. And building kernels on fedora is a pain in
the a.. .

Thx, worked great.
Although one problem occured:
I made the vos dump on a machine with enough HD space out of AFS (to dump a
15gig volume you need some space). While restoring it just prints out some kind
of "not a dump site" errors.
That errors occurs on a lot of actions I try within AFS. What does it actual
mean exact?
After vos restore from the server with the vldb on it, it went well...
But the vos restore should work from all AFS servers, or?
