@theodore: The answer is: it depends Definitely you have to recompile the package after a major kernel update (e.g. 3.5 -> 3.6). Unfortunately you have to do it also after SOME minor updates (e.g. 3.6.2 -> 3.6.3). We place the module in /usr/lib/modules/extramodules... to allow reusing it after minor kernel updates but if loading the modules fails with the new kernel you have to recompile it.

one question, do we still need to recompile the package after each new kernel update? p.s. i am using systemd and openafs-client.service

@ Bevan Thanks for your reply anyway!

To be honest I have no clue what's going wrong there. systemd should do exactly what you have tried. You could check that you don't still have openafs-client listed in the DAEMONS array in /etc/rc.conf but this shouldn't make any difference at all when initscripts is not installed... What does "systemctl status openafs-client.service" say after starting the service has failed?

No. Thanks for your help, Kašpi.

@kaspi: Sorry for the late response. I'm using the systemd service file myself and it works for me. Could you please post the content of your /etc/conf.d/openafs here? Please also try to run the commands of the service file manually to see what happens (make sure, afsd is not running before!): /sbin/modprobe libafs /usr/sbin/afsd -dynroot -fakestat -afsdb And a last question: Do you have the initscripts package installed?

Hi all, is someone actually using the systemd service file? For me it seems to fail. Starting the service sudo systemctl start openafs-client issues no error message, but AFS is clearly not up. Inspecting the journal sudo journalctl gives this: Oct 15 10:33:07 myhostname systemd[1]: Starting OpenAFS Client Service... Oct 15 10:33:07 myhostname kernel: libafs: module license 'http://www.openafs.org/dl/license10.html' taints kernel.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Kašpi.

Works! Thanks for the really fast response Bevan! Great work. Yeah, let's hope they release 1.6.2 soon.

Bevan commented on 2012-10-03 09:09 (UTC)

@totsilence: Could you please test the new version with linux 3.6 and report your results here?
