Bugzilla Bug 67

The OpenAFS init-script isn't working properly.

* It doesn't care about CACHEDIR as set in /etc/afs/afs.conf

* It fails to correctly setup the cacheinfo-file (CACHESIZE is set to "")

* The ext2-fs-in-cache-dir test is broken. 
  - It needs /usr/vice/cache to be it's own partitation.
  - It should check for ext3 too.

aeoo would you like to have a look at this?

I looked superficially into the problem.  While the required changes seem to be
fairly trivial, I think it would be best if someone who actually uses OpenAFS
and knows something about it would fix it.  From what I know about OpenAFS I
don't think I will be using it any time soon, because it doesn't solve any
problems for me.

|darks| on irc added this package AFAIK, and he should be maintaining it.

im not doing this one either.

so here we go:1) i can't find a variable CACHEDIR in /etc/afs/afs.conf and i
didn't create   one cause i wanted all config files not to be modified so that
upgrading to   a newer version would be easy.2) i need more details on the
cacheinfo file bug since it works correctly   on 3 different boxes here.3) afs
cache dir should always be a separate partition. it checks for ext2   since
according to openafs mailing list it won't work with ext3 due to   different
vinode structures in the kernel. i'm not running any ext3       filesystems
here so i can't check that.
