Thanks, Aaron and Derek.
I've partially solved my problem. After removing the /afs entry from
/etc/fstab I rebooted and now afs works.
But my second problem still remains: Athena is not fully recognizing my
user account.
When I login to my Linux machine using my Athena username/passwd, I land
into this temporary directory (/var/athena/tmphomedir/jovicich) -note:
this doesn't happen if I login from a different machine.
Since afs now works, I can go to my real Athena directory
(/afs/athena.mit.edu/user/j/o/jovicich). However I am treated there as
another user since I don't have the right permissions. Even though I login
with my Athena username and password!
If my office mate login my Linux, then she lands in her correct Athena
account. So the problem seems to be somehow with my settings for Athena in
this machine.
Any help?
Thanks!
Jorge
