Thanks! How is the AFS space accessed after this? Is there a command that has to be passed? Or is that automatic (in the sense that AFS "sees" that you have the right credentials and you are given access. is understand that this may be specific to different kinds of setup.

You need a few things working. Kerberos, openafs-client, kmod, and
kmod-openafs.
- Kerberos: this is for authentication. You need to set your realms in
/etc/krb5.conf. Something like this (of course you have to use
whatever is appropriate for your organisation, s/cern.ch/myorg.org/):
[realms]
CERN.CH = {
default_domain = cern.ch
kdc = cerndc.cern.ch
}
[domain_realm]
.cern.ch = CERN.CH
cern.ch = CERN.CH
- openafs-client, kmod, and kmod-openafs: this was provided by
RPMFusion, but the maintainer changed jobs where it was not needed
anymore and has been orphaned since then. This was about a year ago I
think. kmod is available in the normal repos, the openafs bits can
now be found on these coprs: jsbillings/openafs,
jsbillings/openafs-kmod.
- If you don't want to depend on the timely build of kmods for every
kernel update, you have to switch to dkms instead of kmod.
Hope this helps,

Authentication for AFS is done by Kerberos. Furthermore you need an AFS token. So the sequence of commands at my university is kinit aklog Afterwards I've access to the directories behind /afs. "man kinit" and "man aklog" recommended for further reading. > Thank you for any help you are able to provide!

Re: F22: how to mount AFS directory?
Once you start the OpenAFS client it will by default attach itself at /afs IIRC. You can change the default in a config file or the command line. The way I used AFS a lng time back, it used Kerberos to authenticate you to the AFS network, and everything you had access to was available in that /afs top level structured by Kerberos domains and then local file system structures. There was no mounting in the traditional sense. It is one big, cloudy repository that was primarily used by collaborating scientists. You could browse around and find all kinds of interesting stuff. :-) I used Scientific Linux (fork of CentOS) back then, and it had AFS installed by default. It's a long time ago, so I may be hazy on this. ti., 25.08.2015 kl. 08.09 -0500, skrev Ranjan Maitra: > On Tue, 25 Aug 2015 00:38:03 +0100 "Patrick O'Callaghan" < > pocallag...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > On Mon, 2015-08-24 at 18:19 -0500, Ranjan Maitra wrote: > > > Does anyone know how to mount an AFS filesystem (I think it is > > > called > > > an Andrews' Filesystem) on Fedora 22? > > > > The Andrew File System was part of the Andrew project at Carnegie > > Mellon University many years ago. > > > > See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_File_System > > > > > I looked around on the web, but did not come up with anything > > > that > > > worked so I thought that I would ask for some advice. > > > > According to the above page RedHat has an implementation in early > > development.

F22: how to mount AFS directory?
Hi, Does anyone know how to mount an AFS filesystem (I think it is called an Andrews' Filesystem) on Fedora 22? I looked around on the web, but did not come up with anything that worked so I thought that I would ask for some advice. Thank you for any help you are able to provide!
