Simon, I've been too busy to get back to this until now. I would like to try this method but I don't know where to find the src rpm list below. I assume building the kernel module this way implies we don't need to match all the kernel minor versions as rpmbuild will just 'do the right thing' and gi

You can try compiling your own kmod RPMs, but I can't recall the invocation to build it. rpmbuild -ba --define "fedorakmod 1" \ --define "build_modules 1" \ --define "build_userspace 0" \ --define "osvers el5" \ openafs-1.4.11-1.src.rpm will

> Using kmod's are fine, but dkms can be easier when upgrading kernels. kmod's vs. dkms vs. kmdl is one of those "religious" items. Like emacs vs. vi. I will acknowledge that there are those who have strong opinions on which kernel module approach to believe in, and arguments that can support th

Using kmod's are fine, but dkms can be easier when upgrading kernels. To use the dkms rpm, add the epel repo, remove the kmod's, and run "sudo yum dkms openafs-dkms" dkms automatically compiles the needed openafs kernel module when the kernel is upgraded. dkms is fine as long as you don't c
