Hi,

I am trying to setup openafs on my RHEL 4 but I find the documentation =
not as updated as I hope it to be and it becomes extremely difficult to =
troubleshoot when I encounter a problem.

Does anyone know where to find a recent guide? Also I have a few =
questions and hopes someone can help me:

a.	Is it possible to join a Windows afs server to a linux afs cell?=20
b.	How do I mount the afs user directory to the home directory such that =
the users are in their afs user directory once they login (is it =
possible?)?  =20
c.	How do I share out files in afs through samba?=20
d.	If I have use afs authentication without setting up any other =
Kerberos on my linux afs server, how do I get the tokens on a windows =
afs client (do I need MIT Kerberos and what's the settings?)?=20

Appreciate if anyone can help me. Many thanks.
