Okay, cool.  I think that's actually the solution.  It increasingly makes
little sense to run AFS without dynroot.  In a future version of the
package, I may change the debconf template to make it clear that you don't
want to disable that (now that it's the default) unless you have a static
IP address configured at boot.  Without dynroot, AFS tries to talk to the
local VLDBs as soon as it starts, which isn't ever going to work if your
network comes up at some unknown point later in the boot process (which is
the case if you're using something like Network Manager).
