An easily installable AFS Client for NT (only) is now available on NICE in:
More Applications/System Configuration/AFS Client for NTAlso in this menu -
Documentation on "How to Proceed"
This software allows users to access their AFS home directory and files stored on AFS from NT Desktops.
The installation is performed in two steps. The actual installation must be run from a Local Administrator account, the PC must then be rebooted and the second part - the configuration of the client - should be performed by the user.
In both steps, there is a very simple dialog - defaults and recommendations are offered. More details can be found in the documentation in the Start Menu.
If the user wishes to run applications from the AFS Nice mirror, there are a few known problems which are described in
http://niceafs.web.cern.ch/niceafs/#AppsfromAFS
These represent the problems which have been reported to
Transarc. Note that this configuration has not been
through the extensive certification program similar to
what is done by IT Division for Unix o/s, therefore not all
applications have been thoroughly tested.
