nothing but afs pings?

[Mike Marion]

Suddenly, all the amd64_linux26 hosts (and one i386_linux26 host) I have 
running arla, which has been running fine for months, is hanging on afs 
with the only packets like so:


21:46:34.487776 IP cornholio.qualcomm.com.7001 > 
afs-rtp-1.qualcomm.com.7000:  rx ack first 1 serial 183 reason ping (50)
21:46:34.557306 IP afs-rtp-1.qualcomm.com.7000 > 
cornholio.qualcomm.com.7001:  rx ack first 1 serial 184 reason ping 
response acked 16777216 (66)
21:46:38.488858 IP cornholio.qualcomm.com.7001 > 
afs-rtp-1.qualcomm.com.7000:  rx ack first 1 serial 184 reason ping (50)
21:46:38.559159 IP afs-rtp-1.qualcomm.com.7000 > 
cornholio.qualcomm.com.7001:  rx ack first 1 serial 185 reason ping 
response acked 16777216 (66)
21:46:42.489872 IP cornholio.qualcomm.com.7001 > 
afs-rtp-1.qualcomm.com.7000:  rx ack first 1 serial 185 reason ping (50)
21:46:42.559392 IP afs-rtp-1.qualcomm.com.7000 > 
cornholio.qualcomm.com.7001:  rx ack first 1 serial 186 reason ping 
response acked 16777216 (66)

anyone know what might cause that?  I've got our AFS admins looking at 
the server (the servers are transarc servers on solaris), but I'm trying 
things on the clients too.   Restarting arla, clearning the cache before 
starting, etc... doesn't seem to help.

screaming
"You moron!" at their TV sets, who's clapping and saying "Good answer! Good
answer!"?  Your family, that's who.  ==> Dennis Miller on Families.
