[OpenAFS] Newbie: afsd configuration.

[Paul Blackburn]

Hello Stavros,

A couple of pointers that may help you:

a) A Gentoo Linux guide on OpenAFS
   http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/openafs.xml

b) A logfile from a script I use to install AFS cells on AIX
   It shows all the configuration processes in sequence and detail.

HTH.
