[OpenAFS] AFS on BSD 'nix ? (yaioa)

[Paul Blackburn]

Hmm, that's a little weird.

I just did a google search for "-dynroot afsd" and
found the "OpenBSD man page for afsd" [0] which seems
to have different command line arguments than either
Transarc AFS or OpenAFS.

Yet another implementation of AFS?

Counting RedHat's own implementation this makes 4
(unless there are more?).

It's good to see there is so much interest in AFS
but would it not be more sensible to be compatible
with Transarc and OpenAFS?

> DESCRIPTION
> 
>      afsd runs on AFS client machines.  It is used to manage the file cache,
>      fetch files from AFS servers, handle callbacks and manage the authentica-
>      tion information for users.  In normal cases you will not need to run it
>      by yourself.  It is automatically started when mount_xfs(8) is run.
