Hi All

I'm trying to setup OpenAFS here at Copenhagen Businnes School
(Denmark). We have a MS Active Directory where all users are created and
on windows I will install OpenAFS for windows and hopefully be able to
access the OpenAFS servers with the principle, but unfortunally all
users have a dot (period) in the name.

Ex. I have "mkj.lib@CBS.DK", creating the user "mkj.lib" in pts

    pts createuser mkj.lib 500
    fs setacl /afs/.cbs.dk/home/mkj.lib all


    kinit mkj.lib
    aklog
    ls /afs/cbs.dk/home/mkj.lib
    ls: /afs/cbs.dk/home/mkj.lib: Permission denied

I have tryed to use:

    pts createuser "mkj.lib" 500
    pts createuser mkj\.lib 500
    pts createuser "mkj\.lib" 500

None of it works.


How do I deal with periods in usernames ?


Bye
