I have a home network that includes a linux machine using iptables to NAT
packets from three user machines: a laptop (debian 3.0, 2.4.18 kernel), a
desktop (debian 3.0, 2.4.20 kernel) and a windows machine. The two debian
machines run openAFS clients to connect to UNC's AFS servers.
This setup has worked fine for quite some time now. Sometime in the past
two weeks, though, it's stopped working for the debian desktop, but it
still works fine for the debian laptop. I'm fresh out of ideas, and would
appreciate some pointers.
The symptom is simple:
aperrin@joehill:~$ ls -lad afshome
lrwxrwxrwx 1 aperrin aperrin 34 Oct 17 14:11 afshome ->
/afs/isis.unc.edu/home/a/p/aperrin
aperrin@joehill:~$ cd afshome
bash: cd: afshome: Connection timed out
Same happens if I go directly *to that directory*:
aperrin@joehill:~$ cd /afs/@cell/home/a/p/aperrin
bash: cd: /afs/@cell/home/a/p/aperrin: Connection timed out
But not if I go to the parent directory:
aperrin@joehill:~$ cd /afs/@cell/home/a/p
aperrin@joehill:/afs/@cell/home/a/p$
Notice that it's not just my home directory:
aperrin@joehill:/afs/@cell/home/a/p$ ls
ls: apackouz: Connection timed out
ls: apendyal: Connection timed out
ls: apickett: Connection timed out
ls: apperson: Connection timed out

And that it works fine from the laptop:
aperrin@simmel:~$ cd /afs/@cell/home/a/p/aperrin
aperrin@simmel:/afs/@cell/home/a/p/aperrin$
I've tried restarting both the NAT masq'er and the client machine, as well
as using fs flush, with no luck. Any further advice?
Background:
Both machines are unning openafs-modules-source 1.2.5-1.
