[OpenAFS] Problems building AFS perl module 2.4.0

Re: [OpenAFS] openafs-1.4.2 RHEL RPM package installs nonempty SuidCells and mangles CellServDB

IMHO this is a security issue! This should not *never* happen, because it poses a threat to unexperienced users and during updates of the client. Ok, but. The same mechanism is applied to CellServDB! We maintain our CellServDB ourself for several reasons. This startup script mangles our conf

Re: [OpenAFS] openafs-1.4.2 RHEL RPM package installs nonempty SuidCells and mangles CellServDB

The RPM will combine /usr/vice/etc/CellServDB.local with /usr/vice/etc/CellServDB.dist into /usr/vice/etc/CellServDB. If you have local changes you want to make to the CellServDB then put them into CellServDB.local and the RPM will include them in the new CellServDB. This is done at every 'start'

[OpenAFS] Two afs cells in one server

Hi, i would like to know if it is possible to have two different afs cells in one server. I guess that it is not possible since the command: bos setcellname -noauth Writes the file ThisCell and that file has only one cellname I wanted to ask here though. Thanks very much. Walter Lamagna --

Re: [OpenAFS] openafs 1.5.9 on windows xp 64 bit

One more thing. Do not use the "AFS plug-in for KFW 3.1 Beta 1" with KFW 3.1 Beta 3 and OpenAFS for Windows 1.5.11 (32-bit Tools). It is not required. The AFS plug-in is already included in the OpenAFS for Windows 1.5.11 (32-bit Tools) distribution. Jeffrey Altman wrote: > My current installat

Re: [OpenAFS] Two afs cells in one server

Nope, a single server can only server a single cell. You could run servers in vmware on different IP Addresses to get different cells. The AFS Client assumes services are on specific ports. If your server is multi-homed you could bind different servers to different IP Addresses on the same machi

Looking good. But at least read the final comment that really addresses a lot of the other issues, like abstraction, syscall numbers and non-linux systems. Russ Allbery wrote: Douglas E Engert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: Feature requests: * all aklog type programs support the -p option

No, it doesn't handle that case explicitly.It WILL put contents of CellServDB.local ahead of CellServDB.dist, but I don't know what the OpenAFS code does if it finds the same cell listed twice. -derek Quoting Jason Edgecombe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Does the RPM init.d script properly handle th
