I have been getting ready to implement openAFS into the system on a X
Serve running Debian GNU/Linux for the ppc. I also have been doing some
reading in the Managing AFS by Richard Campbell and google searching on
DFS.
I can see good reasons to both arch. I gather openAFS is simpler to
manage than DFS but DFS has more advanced features. Also I gather DFS
is not supported on a wide rage of server/client hardware.
Since I am starting from scratch and learning openAFS should I stick
with that or should I try to go the DFS route. I am not experienced in
either so I would not know esp that I am the one in charge of the the
companies IT.
