Thanks Marcus, your way solved the problem. And shall I use -localauth for the following installation procedure? Andrew, yes, I followed a guide from the OpenAFS official website, http://docs.openafs.org/QuickStartUnix/index.html. And it says I shall use -noauth in installation procedure.
Any ideas?
