we had the same problems.

We are using the 1.6 release from ppa (
https://launchpad.net/~openafs/%2Barchive/ubuntu/stable ) on server
and client now and there seems to be no problems anymore.
We were probably just lucky, or the packages from the 1.8 ppa http://ppa.launchpad.net/openafs/stable/ubuntu never had the problem.

At the moment, we live with all clients and all servers at 1.8.2 and (crossing fingers and knocking wood) everything seems to work.


The one problem we occasionally have (which has nothing to do with the above) is that when people force a shutdown or reboot at an inopportune moment during an OpenAFS update, the AFS is entirely lost (the old DKMS-package deleted, the new not yet built), but the system thinks, "oh the home-directory should be /afs/math.uni-hamburg.de/users/../... - let's just create that directory and the entire tree".

In that case, a simple rebuild of the DKMS-module and "service openafs-client force-start" fixes the problem however.
