Generelle Installationsanweisungen und Anmerkungen:

Download: KIP-AFS_Windows-Installation Script

This script will automatically download, install and configure all needed software for you.

IMPORTANT: During the installation process you will be asked for the AFS-Cell: kip.uni-heidelberg.de

On Windows > 7 you need to run this script with Administrator privileges: right click on the file and select "Run as administrator"

On Windows 10 you have to enable the version 1 of the SMB protocol by opening "Turn Windows features on or off" and selecting "SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support". (Bzw. "Unterstützung für die SMB 1.0/CIFS-Dateifreigabe" in der Box "Windows-Features", die über "Programme und Features" in der Systemsteuerung aufgerufen werden kann.)

Upgrade auf Version 1.7.XX:

Beim Upgrade von Version kleiner / gleich 1.6.xx - bitte den alten Client deinstallieren!

Ab Version 1.7.X arbeitet der AFS Client für Windows mit einem nativen Filesystem Treiber und nicht mehr wie bisher über die Funktion SMB/Loopbackadapter. Deshalb ist es notwendig bei einem Upgrade des Clients auf Version 1.7.XX, und zwar nach der Deinstallation des Clients, den Loopbackadapter zu entfernen. Dies funktioniert am Besten über:

Eigenschaften des Loopbackadapters > Karteikarte Treiber > Deinstallieren/Entfernen 

Dieses Fenster findet man entweder im Gerätemanager, oder unter Eigenschaften von Netzwerk.

Installation des AFS Authentication Gui Tool, Installation ohne Kerberos/Heimdal:

Damit man auch ohne Kerberos oder Heimdal einen Token erzeugen kann, gibt es immer noch die Möglichkeit das AFS Authentication Tool zu installieren. Hierfür ist es notwendig die Installation manuell/custom durchzuführen, und die Auswahl der einzelnen Programmteile wie folgt zu treffen:

AFS Options


Client-Software

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 downloads, installs and configures all needed software for you.

NOTE: The AFS-Cell is: kip.uni-heidelberg.de

Use only for a fresh installation, or uninstall the old client-software completely first!

Remove also the Loopback Adapter, if present in the Device Manager.

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

HowTo: Uninstalling the Microsoft Windows Loopback Adapter


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 better use Heimdal Kerberos on all other Systems the MIT Kerberos works well.

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

Examples:

( 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: " \\afs\kip\<your_location> " in the explorer address bar.
