Is the machine joined to a Windows domain? Is the job running as a domain user or the local SYSTEM account? If so, running ms2mit.exe and then aklog.exe should just work. You would of course then need to add the appropriate PTS entry for the system COMPUTERNAME$ or so to PTS. I have some winscp jobs I run this way with Kerberos credentials for authentication. Should work just as well for direct AFS access, although going through another machine using SSH is always an option. A keytab will work as well. You probably want to remember to unlog and kdestroy when the job is done though, or the machine itself may be able to continue to write into AFS and that could be bad. <<CDC _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
