There should never be any reason to build with --disable-afsdb. If you don't want afsdb, don't turn it on. Even if you do turn it on, I think the CellServDB still takes precedence. If you can't build without --disable-afsdb because of build problems, I think we'd like to hear about that. ___

Please install rc6 so you obtain some additional debugging info and run the file log level at 125. rc2 doesn't have the patch to distinguish client's host structures by port number. Jeffrey Altman Christopher D. Clausen wrote: > As per my first post on this topic, fileservers are: > C:\>for /l

The messages you are seeing are normal behavior. The client is moving to a new IP address/port combination and the file server can't find the client at the old address. Reinstalling the client or switching to DHCP will not alter the behavior. Jeffrey Altman Christopher D. Clausen wrote: > I hav

The server list produced by "fs getserverprefs" does not necessarily indicate that the listed "file servers" are registered in your vldb.
