About This Version
OpenAFS is the supported AFS client for Red Hat Linux at MIT. Combined with MIT Kerberos for authentication, it allows you to access files in AFS from your Red Hat Linux machine.
Important known issue: Keep the cache partition size below 8GB. The OpenAFS 1.4.1 afsd will segmentation fault instead of starting up if you specify a cache partition size of 8GB or larger.
