[OpenAFS] OpenAFS on FC6 (OpenAFS, LDAP, SSH, gdm afs tokens etc etc...)

[Ron Croonenberg]

Hi Russ,

Uhm I am not using that module. Actually I can't find it after I
installed OpenAFS? Is it part of the OpenAFS distribution ?

 It's is not, it isn't ain't, and it's it's, not its, if you mean
 it is. If you don't, it's its. Then too, it's hers. It isn't
 her's. It isn't our's either. It's ours, and likewise yours and
 theirs.
