[OpenAFS] Unable to authenticate from remote PC

[Brian Sebby]

When you say "remote PC" are you coming from a remote Unix machine or a PC
running Windows?  If it's the latter, you will also need to open up port
88 UDP if you're using the Windows NT/2000/XP client, and port 750 UDP if
you're running the Windows 9x client.  (These are Kerberos ports.)

I put together some slides for the AFS workshop at LISA 2002 about using
AFS in a firewall environment that might help; they're at:
