Note it says "file msu doesn't exist."
This mount mount (msu) has been in use for years and many docs; etc refer to this.

Any ideas? Suggestions?

The Fedora Core system is probably using dynroot, which means that the
contents of /afs are automatically generated.  To get dynroot to generate
the cell aliases as well, create a file named CellAlias in your
configuration directory (/usr/vice/etc, /etc/openafs, whatever the
packages use) containing:

   msu.edu msu

(the . entry is automatically also handled).

Thanks that did it !
