Hmm i managed to crash my system by doing an "ls -R" in /afs/something on
FreeBSD 5.5.

Great news!
In an earlier message on freebsd-fs@freebsd.org Jim Rees, rees@umich.edu.
stated:
"It wouldn't take much to get OpenAFS in pretty good shape on FreeBSD. It
mostly has some locking and vnode ref count issues that shouldn't be too
hard to fix for someone who knows what they're doing. I'd be happy to
point anyone in the right direction."
Maybe he could give you the push in the right direction?
(Even thou i suspect your motivation is more connected to getting arla up
and running under 6.2, Jim's input could perhaps help you in that
direction too?)

My experience above with "ls -R" was also on 5.5 running arla-0.43.

Thats nice news. And i realise that my little bounty might not make any
difference when people are "already funded" and have other motivations.
So let me rephrase my bounty. 1000 USD to the person who needs it and
makes a difference in implementing this. Otherwise given to the FreeBSD
foundation or some other Open source project/fund etc. when a working afs
server and client implementation exists for FreeBSD 6.2 or higher,
preferably as a port or in the base system. Those involved in the
implementation will have a say in which project or individual the money
will go.
And please if others are intrested in increasing the bounty, do so!
/Chris
