Thanks for all of the work on AFS and the associated workarounds. It seems to me, from the traffic on this list and the sysadmin list, that implementation of afs has pushed out the switchover to the new server at the expensive provider. That has had a cost. Going forward, I suspect the afs server implementation will require dedicated/paid sysadmins for maintenance and may require moving to Transarc commercial afs server software. Most of the AFS installations I know use Transarc/IBM server and openafs clients. But AFS is a mind expanding file system, and everything for hcoop will be good. We will be successful as long as we adhere to pay-as-you-go financing, accrual accounting, and avoid any appearance of ponzi or multilevel marketing finance.
