Why install all by hand? There are quite perfect packages of 1.6.1pre4 in debian available which will work in ubuntu, to. 1.7.1 is just 1.6.x which includes the windows native drive, not suitable for linux. Stick with 1.6.1pre4 for a best server set. Do use krb5 server and not kaserver (which is krb4 and no more used with OpenAFS 1.6.0 and higher). But if you just setup another server, your krb5 setup is already setup. For a short, useable installation of a OpenAFS fileserver and a new cell, we just made a (german) HowTo setup a OpenAFS cell and a workshop in chemnitz. That PDF is here: http://chemnitzer.linux-tage.de/2012/vortraege/folien/1018_OpenAFS.pdf With that howto (made step by step on debian) you have a running cell. If you want to train, the image of the debian system on which that PDF is applied is linked under: http://tetris.cgv.tugraz.at/clt2012/CLT12.de.tar.bz2 But maybe I did miss a important point of your side? > Thank you in advance. > > Regards, MfG, Lars Schimmer -- ------------------------------------------------------------- TU Graz, Institut für ComputerGraphik & WissensVisualisierung Tel: +43 316 873-5405 E-Mail: l.schim...@cgv.tugraz.at Fax: +43 316 873-5402 PGP-Key-ID: 0x4A9B1723 _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
