Hello All,

I've been having a nightmare of a time trying to get openafs installed under debian, I've gotten to the point where you create a volume (I assume) with the command vos create (host) a root.afs -localauth and it just hangs, I've tried stracing the filesserver process as well as the bosserver process, it appears to be hanging on

[pid 7169] connect(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(2040), sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, 16) = -1 ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused)

resulting in continuously outputting;

FSYNC_clientInit temporary failure (will retry): Connection refused

Nothing is bound to port 2040, I looked into this for the past few hours with little to no success minus some vague handwaving towards the concept of nameserver resolution and configuration, so I made *absolutely* certain that that was correct (cell name umbralservices.com, hostname raven, resolves forwards and reverse resolves correctly, notably *not* to 127.0.0.1 so I'm uncertain if there's something to worry about with the bosserver trying to connect to localhost:2040)

I've looked over the documentation on the main site but it's clearly geared toward a massively different process installing from CD's and such and has about zero relevance for the debian install, unfortunately the documentation in /usr/share/doc/openafs-fileserver is just about no better on the debian side.

Anyone out there got this working and know what I'm doing wrong?

Regards
Eric
