Hi,

by reading

http://docs.openafs.org/QuickStartUnix/HDRWQ114.html

and

http://docs.openafs.org/Reference/1/fs_newcell.html

i understand that a change in CellServDB on client does have no effect
until reboot.

So i copied the CellServDB which contain a new db server (and the old db
servers) which isnt online yet to clients and detect ssh shell logins
and sudo tasks takes a long time.

When i removed the new db server from CellServDB ssh login and sudo
works great. I didnt add the new db server on client side with "fs
newcell" so kernel list wasnt recreated and shouldnt ask the new db
server because doesnt know about.

Did i understand something wrong with CellServDB / fs newcell ?

regards,
Andi
