[OpenAFS] Hang on shutdown with OSX ?

[Chris Jones]

Hi,

Thanks for the info, I'll give this a shot. On the face it does seem  
like a different problem - That thread refers to a crash whlst  
running, whilst this is a hang on shutdown...

Anyway, Font book does seem to have found some problems ...

cheers Chris
