Troubleshooting on Mac OS X
Our wiki page MemberManual/ShellAccess/TroubleshootingKerberos is a great reference for making sure that your Kerberos configuration is correct. In addition, the wiki pages for client configurations on other operating systems MemberManual/TransferringFiles/OpenAFS may be of help. Finally, there is always the hcoop-discuss mailing list!
Other AFS Client Implementations on OS X
The following clients have not been tested with HCoop software. If you're not looking for a challenge, it's probably best to stay with the instructions above.
Arla for Mac OS X
From the Arla web site:
- Arla is a free AFS implementation. The main goal is to make a fully functional client with all capabilities of AFS as formerly sold by Transarc and today available as OpenAFS. Other stuff, such as servers and management tools are being developed, but currently not considered stable.
Obtaining the latest arla port:
Get the latest source code file from the project site and build it yourself:
http://www.stacken.kth.se/project/arla/
Alternatively, go to
http://trac.macports.org/projects/macports/browser/trunk/dports/net/arla/Portfile
or
which have the advantage of being easier to install.
Follow the notes above, and it should "just work".
If you do have success, edit this page and let the rest of us know about it.
