On the same subject: - the wget check shall be really removed : it hurts people (in case sbdy has 7000/tcp closed on firewall for example: as we do at CERN..) - in addition this does not check for: - that replying server is AFS server - that replying server is AFS DB server working check would be: /usr/sbin/rxdebug $SERVER -port 7002 -version 2>&1 > /dev/null if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "OK!" fi (yes we've tried on 7000 before: but 7000 is only afs3-fileserver: AFS DB servers do not need to run it , but they must run afs3-prserver on 7002) - the -dynroot shall really be disabled in default package: it also breaks things for people (yes, I know theres SL_afs_nodynroot package: but I would REALLY prefer if dynroot is disabled by default and then a SL_afs_dynroot package is provided for those who need it...) Side note: we on CERN site avoid as much as we can propagating such config changes via RPMS: we rather use our own config mechanism based on Quattor (http://quattor.cern.ch) to propagate changes. [the RPM containing 'profile' for the machine - which is site dependent - is updated regularily and it runs configuration components to perform changes when needed]. this way framework and component packages are not updated (unless improved/bug-fixed): only a single profile package gets updated (once per month or even less frequently in our case) I would be happy to discuss details of this solution if anybody is interested ..
