	OpenAFS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		OpenAFS is an open source implementation of the Andrew distributed file system (AFS).
		Since it began its life as a stable, secure, enterprise-quality product, OpenAFS has an advantage over most open source projects.
		Today, OpenAFS supports AIX, Mac OS, Darwin, Digital UNIX, HP-UX, Irix, Solaris, Linux, Microsoft Windows, FreeBSD and OpenBSD.

	Installing and configuring OpenAFS on MacOS X
		OpenAFS is a freely available implementation of the distributed filesystem known as AFS (the Andrew File System), which works on Unix, Windows, and MacOS X. These notes outline the very easy installation and configuration of OpenAFS on MacOS X, along with a comparison to how things are done on other Unix installations.
		OpenAFS is a freely available implementation of AFS (the Andrew File System), a distributed filesystem originally developed by Carnegie Mellon University and Transarc Corporation (now IBM Pittsburgh Labs).
		OpenAFS will not start automatically at boot time unless your computer is configured to be part of an existing AFS cell, and this is no longer the case by default.

	OpenAFS helps corral distributed data
		Gentoo.org made a special effort for OpenAFS to be accessible to Linux users, even though other organizations still seem to refer to NFS when they need distributed file systems.
		OpenAFS is organized around a group of file servers, known as a cell.
		As long as an OpenAFS client machine is configured as an NFS server machine, you should be able to enjoy the advantages of both file systems.

	AFS Workshop Notes, LISA 2002 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Issues that OpenAFS is currently facing include recent RedHat Linux kernels, which break the OpenAFS client by no longer exporting the symbol sys_call_table; this symbol is also not exported in any Linux 2.5.x kernels, and will not be exported in the 2.6 Linux series.
		Coming soon in OpenAFS is an HPUX 11 port, which was made possible by HP releasing the kernel header file needed for the AFS client to build; this will appear in OpenAFS 1.2.8.
		OpenAFS continues to have no full-time developers, and is still operating entirely as a volunteer effort.

	USENIX Good Works
		USENIX announces the formation of the OpenAFS Fund, a financial means of supporting The OpenAFS Project.
		OpenAFS is a free, secure, scalable, distributed filesystem used by large corporations and small companies alike.
		Few contributors to OpenAFS are currently paid for their time, and those who are, are funded by their employers (to whom OpenAFS is eternally grateful).

	PCQuest : Enterprise : Integrate Storage with OpenAFS
		OpenAFS (Open Andrew File System) is a completely scalable server file system that combines the concept of a DFS (Distributed file System) and NetWare-like features of salvage/purge files, additional share security backup and failover support.
		You can move an entire OpenAFS file system from one server to another in case of failure, without affecting its availability to clients.
		The OpenAFS architecture makes it possible to let the amount of data in a cell grow with time by adding new servers and redistributing the AFS-volumes while the user's view of the AFS-tree is kept constant.

		Not taking patches directly, but if they want something from OpenAFS, will contact contributor directly and get them to sign off on allowing IBM to use the code.
		Licesning is such that you need to sign a form saying you won't use it such a way that it is later sold for profit.
		There may be some sort of licensing ambiguity, but it doesn't matter: it can't be rolled into OpenAFS with the license in its current form.

		Not doing this yet, because right now, AFS doesn't unmount _anyway_ even if processes aren't using it.

	FAQ: IBM AFS Client for Windows
		The newer version, OpenAFS, has proved to be more functional and generally easier to support.
		A: The current supported version of OpenAFS is 1.2.11, however, due to incompatibilities with Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) a newer/compatible version (OpenAFS 1.3.70) is being evaluated.
		The current AFS client standard for Windows is based on OpenAFS instead of the IBM/Transarc version that we’ve used for years.

	How to turn a Martian NetDrive into another OpenAFS file server (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		http://www.openafs.org/ gives the details, but basically, OpenAFS is the modern production version of what was once the ``Andrew File System'', a secure (kerberized) distributed network filesystem popular among educational institutions and some large-infrastructure companies (including, MIT, CMU, UMich, and Morgen Stanley.) There are clients for every OS that anyone takes at all seriously.
		You simply add new space (install a new machine, or connect disks to an existing one) and restart the fileserver process on that machine, and your new partitions are available.
		One of the additional reasons to use OpenAFS is that not only does it use Kerberos for authentication, the data transfers are also encrypted.

		Main reason to upgrade to kernel 2.6 is improved...
		OpenAFS kaserver implements version 4 of the Kerberos protocol, and therefore is vulnerable.
		An attacker that knows a shared cross-realm key between any remote realm and the local realm can impersonate any principal in the local realm to AFS database servers and file servers in the local cell, and other services in the local realm.

	Gentoo Linux Documentation -- Gentoo Linux OpenAFS Guide
		Traditionally, OpenAFS has used the same path-conventions that IBM TransArc labs had used, before the code was forked.
		If you had an OpenAFS server running, you would have not have been forced to shut it down.
		In that case, you should try a graceful OpenAFS server shutdown with bos shutdown localhost -localauth -wait, check the result with bos status localhost -localauth, kill all remaining overseer processes and then finally check whether any server processes are still running (ls /usr/libexec/openafs to get a list of them).

	freshmeat.net: Project details for OpenAFS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		I have recently dived into OpenAFS and found the documentation to be amazing.
		Even today, and since AFS is complexe (not OpenAFS, AFS in general), I sometimes read some pieces of this huge 1000+ pages which, again, I consider to be a high quality documentation.
		I think there are less than ten opensource documentation like this in the world and the IBM fingerprint is clearly there.

	OpenLDAP, OpenSSL, SASL and KerberosV HOWTO
		To get OpenAFS up and running with Kerberos V (OpenAFS only works with Kerberos IV as standard), there is some additional software's necessary besides the OpenAFS sources.
		Before we continue with configuring OpenAFS, we need some supplementary commands since we're using Kerberos V. So these have to be built first.
		We need a special partition to be mounted on /vicepX where X is a letter from a to z (and from aa to zz – see the OpenAFS documentation for more about this).

	ipedia.com: Open source movement Article (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The early period of the open-source movement coincided with and partly drove the dot-com boom of 1998-2000, and saw a large growth in the popularity of Linux and the formation of many "open-source-friendly" companies.
		The movement also caught the attention of the mainstream software industry, leading to open-source software offerings by established software companies such as Corel (Corel Linux), Sun Microsystems (StarOffice), and IBM (OpenAFS).
		By the time the dot-com boom busted in 2001, many of the early hopes of open-source advocates had already borne fruit, and the movement continued from strength to strength in the cost-cutting climate of the 2001-2003 recession.
