Hi!
I had a small difference in settings of OpenAFS today (beside file
corruptions):
If I choose on windows 7 enterprise x64 OpenAFS 1.7.4 the "AFS client

Hi!
Our users do experience some problems with files content in our cell.
Mostly on Windows x64 1.7.4 clients the content of the file is not the

There are 3 issues, but one is way more serious than the other two.

You should really try to keep these binaries at the same version as much
as possible. But the specific issues being mentioned would be f

Effectively, there's an issue where files can end up corrupted when a
copy-on-write copy is modified.

The size you specify in the registry is the amount of data you want to
cache. It is not the size of the cache file which also includes all of
the cell, volume, status objects, data buffer meta data.

Known problem. Hugh Caldwell of USGS started a thread on this subject
the first week of January. Potential fixes are in the repository.
When I've fixed all of the things that are necessary for 1.7.5 it will
be released.

1.6.1pre2 is forthcoming fairly soon, but 1.6.1 final probably has to wait

As readers to this list know; I teach a class with 40-50 students every
semester which uses AFS and I have 30+ people trying to install OpenAFS
on their laptops. This exposes many usability problems with the
installation process. I'm pleased with the quality of the software once
it starts working
I don't know if there's a way to make a "meta-msi" that would wrap up
and install all the sub packages.
But, you can certainly use transforms to customize each of the MSIs with
the default options needed, including a correct krb5.conf, so that users
just double click, install, reboot, done.

Hi!
First: We did make a wiki page with all the needed software (links),
screenshots, values to enter, path,... for our users. In case they want
the software, we give them th elink to the wiki page and 99% of users
could do it as we has written it down.
But we do use OpenAFS 1.7.4 and still MI

Hi,
The manpage for uss mentions that it is deprecated because it is
designed for use with the obsolete authentication server.
We use uss with a template file during account creation, to create a
volume and mountpoint, and to configure a skeleton directory and to
set permissions.
Is the uss comm

Oddly enough I just wrote this today
(http://msu.edu/service/afs/AFS-tutorial-Windows7.pdf) . If its of any
value to anyone let me know and I'll see if I can make it more generic.
Should work if you change the references to MSU.EDU.
I did not need to install the Network Manager software BTW.
