This will all be set up automatically on Debian. To (re-)configure PAM one 
usually uses pam-auth-update on Debian. For service management I install sysv-
rc-conf (systemd is also quite usable on Debian).

Todo (by yourself):

* Create afs principal in Kerberos and setup AFS key file (asetkey).
* In /etc/openafs, adapt

afs.conf.client
cacheinfo
server/UserList
  to your needs
* Create and mount /var/cache/openafs (on clients)
* Create and mount /vicepXX (on servers)
* Setup AFS db-/fileserver processes (on servers)

Don't know how long you didn't use OpenAFS, so you may not be aware of the new 
DAFS (Demand Attach) file servers introduced with 1.6. I'd recommend using 
these instead of the old file server (the docs will tell you how to set them 
up).

Did I forget something?

HTH...

Many thanks everybody!

DAFS sounds pretty cool, I'll read up. I still have my old afs / krb
notes from last time, so with the tips above I should be up & running
in no time.

A+
