Debian Openafs IMPORTANT: If you find these packages useful, please send mail to hartmans-openafs-useful@debian.org. I'm wondering whether people actually use the packages off openafs.org or would be just as happy pulling only OpenAFS from Debian Unstable. This directory contains a Debianized build of Openafs version 1.2.6 for Debian 3.0 (woody) i386. Soon, versions of Openafs 1.2.6 should appear for sid (unstable) for alpha, ia64, i386, powerpc and sparc in the Debian archive. The difference between these packages and those in the Debian archive is that the official Debian packages are built against Debian unstable, while these work on the Debian 3.0. Note that the release of Debian 3.0 already contains OpenAFS 1.2.3; these packages are a newer version of OpenAFS than that found in the Debian release. To install, add the following two lines to /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://www.openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.2.5 debian-2.2/ deb-src http://www.openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.2.6 debian-2.2/ Note that the trailing slashes are important. After adding these lines, run apt-get update to refresh your packages cache. install openafs-modules-source and use make-kpkg to build kernel modules. For information on make-kpkg, make sure you have the kernel-package package installed and then type man make-kpkg. Prebuilt binary modules are not included in this release because there seems to be an inconsistency between the kernel on boot-floppies and the kernel in the Debian release. Then, install openafs-client for a client machine or openafs-dbserver for a file server or database server. Documentation in /usr/share/doc/openafs-client explains how to configure a cell. The example of configuring a cell uses an openafs-krb5 package not currently included on this site. This package was not included because it is not part of the main Openafs distribution, although it is available in sid and should soon be available in woody. Without openafs-krb5, you can build your own aklog from source, or build Heimdal with AFS support. I have not had a chance to test these methods of obtaining tokens. -- Sam Hartman
