Hi!

til yet we used openAFS just for a big storage place.
Now I plan to install some software and libs in afs space.
I've read some websites and I know the @sys function is useful for this.
But still 1 or 2 questions left:
1. Is there somewhere a actual overview for the @sys names?
e.g. linux 32 kernel 2.4, kernel 2.6, linux 64 kernel 2.6, win XP, win
server 2003, win 64bit,... ?!?
2. How do I use the automatic function, or is it automatic at all?
E.G.: I setup one root /afs/cgv/software and in this some dirs like the
@sys-names (i386_linux24 e.g.) and in this the directories opt, lib,...
How do I mount this on the client to get automatic the right directories
for the special client?
Could I just mount /afs/cgv/soft/@sys/opt to /opt and I get the correct
path?

Does anyone know a good information-place for windows software in AFS spa=
ce?

Yes, we are a small cell with 20-30 users of which just 3 using linux.
So its far easier to user debian and apt instead oft soft in AFS space.
But for some soft which isn't in debian, the afs way seems to be quite
fair easy and useful.

MfG,
Lars Schimmer
