[OpenAFS] Connection timed out on new mount point

Hi,

I'm currently facing a strange problem with connection timeouts after
creating a mount point (fs mkm) for a new volume:

# fs mkm tester home.tester.backup
#  ll
ls: cannot access 'tester': Connection timed out
total 132K
=2E..
??????????   ? ?          ?         ?            ? tester

The mount point has been created from a client workstation and only
becomes available there after reboot or cache manager restart. OTOH,
it's accessible immediately on the server (where /afs is usually not
accessed):

# ll
total 134K
=2E..
drwx------   2  1005  1001 2.0K Dec  1 21:49 tester

Both server and client are up-to-date Debian Stretch systems running
OpenAFS 1.6.18.3.

Any ideas what could be causing the problem?

Thanks...

    Dirk
