Hi.
AFS is a file system, not an operating system. It works with UNIX,
not as opposed to it. What I mean by this is that when you use AFS,
you get something that looks like a standard directory to the user.
The command "ls" works the same way in AFS as it does for NFS or UFS
file systems. You type "ls" and it lists the files. ls -l will stat
the files and give you the UNIX permissions, time, size, etc. There
is no difference with this in AFS, except that the permissions work
differently in AFS vs. NFS/UFS/etc.
You can retrieve AFS acl information by executing the command:
fs listacl (la for short)
and you can set acl information by the command:
fs setacl (sa for short)
I hope this helps you out, some.
Enjoy!
