I just installed that latest openafs 1.4 on RHEL 4, using the rpm from
openafs.org.

The rpm installed alright, but when I tried to start the client I get a
message

sudo /etc/init.d/openafs-client start
Updating CellServDB:
Starting openafs-client: FATAL: Module openafs not found.
failed to load openafs kernel module. [FAILED]

which is strange since I also install the kernel modules, and it does exist

locate afs | grep ko
/lib/modules/2.6.9-78.0.1.EL/extra/openafs/openafs.ko

So, now do I need to modify a config file somewhere or symlink the
openafs.ko file to some standard location?
