Hi ,all

I'm newbie for OpenAFS , now working under RedHat6 x86_64 ,  but no rpms for
my evironment . So beg your help .

After comple the openafs-1.4.12.1-src.tar.gz , my dir is now
under /usr/local/src/openafs-1.4.12.1/amd64_linux26/dest/ .The results
showed below

[root@linux ~] ls /usr/local/src/openafs-1.4.12.1/amd64_linux26/dest/
bin  etc  include  lib  LICENSE  root.client  root.perf  root.server

As docs <http://docs.openafs.org/QuickStartUnix/ch02s09.html#HDRWQ44> sayed
: "Copy the AFS kernel library files to the local /usr/vice/etc/modload
directory" , but no /usr/vice or /usr/afs exist as no rpm install .

I wanna know should I  mv root.server to /usr/afs , and root.client to
/usr/vice ? what about other files ?

Maybe what I doubt is can comling src completely replace the rpm install ?

2. How can I start my afs

if all the installation is done ( I did only on one machine right now ),
docs instruct me to start bosserver , what's the relation between bosserver
and afs ?
I did start the bosserver -noauth , at the same time , use the below cmd ,
but showed wrong info

# /etc/init.d/afs start
Ifconfig uses the ioctl access method to get the full address information,
which limits hardware addresses to 8 bytes.
Because Infiniband address has 20 bytes, only the first 8 bytes are
displayed correctly.
Ifconfig is obsolete! For replacement check ip.

Failed to load AFS client, not starting AFS services.

Thank you for your reply :)
