You may be interested in OpenEFS <http://www.openefs.org/>, where I believe AFS support is being worked on. While you can perhaps get something to work that just combines something stow-like with pkgsrc/portage/etc... depending on how 'production' this setup is, you're going to encounter some problems sooner or later with dependencies and release engineering, etc, that systems like EFS or VMS try to make easier. -- Andrew Deason adea...@sinenomine.net _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
