Client-Software

OpenAFS for Windows depends on a third party Kerberos 5 implementation for network authentication.

There are two supported options: MIT Kerberos for Windows and Heimdal Kerberos. For Windows7 64 Bit use Heimdal Kerberos on all other Systems the MIT Kerberos works well.

To access the AFS-Server you need to download and install the appropriate OpenAFS and Kerberos Software (sometimes tricky),

or use this KIP-AFS_Windows Installation Script, which automatically download, install and configure all needed software for you (recommended).

On Windows7 you have to run this script with Administrator privileges: right click on the file and select "Run as administrator"

Client-Connection

After installing the AFS-Software you need to:

If the authentication was successful, you are able to access your data by mapping a network drive:

  • Click: Start > Computer > Map network drive (in the tool-bar)
  • In the "Map Network Drive window" choose an available drive letter from the drop-down list and type the name of the folder to map.

The folder can be any (accessible) path starting with \\afs

Examles (the shortcut \\afs\kip is also possible):

  • for the top level view: \\afs\kip.uni-heidelberg.de
  • for your Home directory: \\afs\kip.uni-heidelberg.de\user\<USERNAME>

Click the "Reconnect at logon" checkbox if this network drive should be mapped permanently.

You can map multiple folders to different drive letters, in order to organize a quick and convenient file access.

It is also possible to access the data temporary (on the fly) without dedicated drive-mapping, by typing

the \\afs\kip\.... location in the explorer address bar.
