Hi List,

Does anyone know how to get dkms-openafs work?  I am under Fedora 9, openafs
1.4.7, using the yum repository from official openafs.org. With dkms-openafs
installed, I would expect it will automatically build the corresponding
kernel module when I upgrade to a new Linux kernel. But everytime there is a
new kernel, openafs client doesn't work because there is no openafs kmod. Do
I need to manually use dkms to build against the new kernel? If so, would
anyone tell me how I do that?

Thanks for any help.


BTW, this is the output of 'dkms status', if it is useful:
