Thank you very mach, Harald!
It was very useful.

What I found is that
1) If I can connect to pdc, then I have response on rxdebug towards  
sculpin like
AFS version:  OpenAFS 1.4.0 built  2006-03-06
otherwise I have no responce
get version call failed with code -1, errno 0

2) I never have any response backwards, i.e. from lise to my Mac  
7001 , even if I can connect to afs.
get version call failed with code -1, errno 0
2.a) I will change that at home via opening 7001 in OS X firewall  
_and_ setting appropriate NAT rule in the router.  Still, I do not  
(yet ) see the effect on connectivity. It works without a client.

3) I have a) UU firewall ??? b) department's firewall c) OS X  
firewall. d) more firewalls???
NB the setting called 'location' is always the same so computer  
thinks it is in the same place, but with DHCP, so that IP is different.
My OS X firewall is set to reject udp in stelth mode. Changing this  
does not change connectability.
3.a) System administrators are payed for being paranoid. For this  
reason all laptops at my dept are connected OUTSIDE of the dept  
firewall, so that they will not kill the system inside.
This leaves the Q if anyone at UU can mount afs from pdc. It also  
could be that OS X firewall feels the change off location somehow ...  
Ore there is yet another firewall in between. I will find out.

Sincerely

Anton
