Hi,

I do exactly have the same problem here. If I start openafs-client, I cannot
unmount /afs anymore. It results in an hanging '/etc/init.d/openafs-client
stop' process where the umount-command runs forever. If I try to shutdown the
system, the 'halt' or 'shutdown' process also runs forever. Restart is only
possible by pressing onto the reset button...

Now to my situation:
I'm currenty installing OpenAFS on that system. The server part seems to run. I
try to get AFS running with external Kerberos-Support, which seems it isn't
correctly integrated into each other at the moment. But that should not be a
problem to be unable to unmount /afs, should it?

What I now try is, that I run the OpenAFS-Client on the server-machine itself.
Starting '/etc/init.d/openafs-client start' runs perfectly. Accessing /afs
brings up 'permission denied', but that is another problem and shouldn't hurt
here - correct my if I'm wrong. Trying to stop the client results in a hang of
'umount'.

It never worked before as this is an new installation which is currently being
installed.

I took the openafs-modules-source packet and made a modules deb for my specific
kernel out of it.

Just as a thought, could it be a Kernel 2.6.11 compatibility problem as Sven
uses an 2.6.11, too?

P.S. If you need more information just drop me a note.
