I had the same problem and Russ was kind enough to answer it:
   / The Fedora Core system is probably using dynroot, which means that the
contents of /afs are automatically generated.  To get dynroot to generate
the cell aliases as well, create a file named CellAlias in your
configuration directory (/usr/vice/etc, /etc/openafs, whatever the
packages use) containing:/
    mountpoint alias

/sd

The problem is that I am not able to see the symbolic links that are
present in the /afs directory.

  <br>
  <br>
  <br>
Is there something that I am missing in the configurations??
  <br>
  <br>
I am able to see the links in a Redhat 9 machine.
