[OpenAFS] ls /afs/cell.name: No such file or directory

[Moritz Bunse]

I solved the problem. I had a misconfigured /etc/hosts on the server which 
was directing 
serve01 to 127.0.0.1. The server propagated this address and so the 
clients searched for an afs server with address 127.0.0.1. That is the 
cause why everything worked fine on the server machine and only client 
machines had the problem. I had to delete all entries from the VLDB and do 
a syncvldb.

Sorry for the noise
