Why is this much not a part of _every_ Mac OS install? Since crypt ON
has been the default on other platforms (at least: debian packages,
ubuntu packages, Windows installers), it's rather jarring to learn
that crypt defaults to OFF on mac os.
Are there obstacles to making this work, other than adding a few lines
to the default afs.conf in the installer package?
If the answer is "only someone's time to submit a patch" -- will

steer me in the right direction?

growlagent-openafs isn't present in that path on 1.4.14. Is
it new as of 1.6? (I've been waiting for 1.6.1 before upgrading mac os
clients from 1.4.x; don't seem to have a 1.4.14.1 handy.)
Thanks,
