Yeah, that's what I've done here and so far, mostly good.
--BUT--
First, while it seems to do a good job providing an anonymous ftp server,
it doesn't work if someone wants to ftp in with their own username/password
and access their home directory. Since it doesn't authenticate to AFS,
there is no token (unless they first telnet and klog).
Second, there is a security concern that Rick Cochran has pointed out
here before. If you happen to login to the ftp server as root, do a klog,
and leave a token owned by root laying around, all anonymous ftp users
will have access to that token until it expires (or you unlog it)!
I've found a pointer to an AFS-aware WUarchive FTPd on the AFS Reference
Page at http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu:8001/usr/db74/afs.html but
haven't checked it out yet. Hope to soon. Hopefully it does the right
thing. If you get to it first, how about a report?
