Yeah, I thought of that;
127.0.0.1 localhost 69.60.123.88 raven.umbralservices.com raven
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts # (added automatically by netbase upgrade)
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
Thanks for the thought though.

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)
Yes, this is a problem.
Debian will put the machine's hostname on the 127.0.0.1 line in /etc/hosts. This is BAD and causes all sorts of problems. Did you check this file also? The hosts file is checked before DNS is queried.
You want to make sure your AFS servers (and probably all your servers for that matter) are configured similarly to:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/]% cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
128.174.251.6 clortho.acm.uiuc.edu clortho
This way an IP lookup on the hostname of the machine returns the correct IP address and NOT 127.0.0.1
