What were you trying to do?
Log in.
What's wrong:
As soon as I started loggin in, the console popped up, saying my
AFS tokens had expired.
xlogin then complained that 'attach failed, perhaps your
fileserver is down?' I aborted and tried again; same problem. Due to
configuration, I was not allowed to get a temporary home directory.
I then logged in as root (via xlogin), su'ed to my userid, and
did an unlog; this cleared up the problem and I was able to log in normally.
What should have happened:
The attach should have worked fine, even with expired tokens
floating around.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
attach(1), xlogin(8)
