Installing a properly modified ftpd is another good choice.
Agreed. I'd like to understand: is there something wrong with the
AFS aware ftpd that comes with AFS?
BTW, regarding the use of AFS login, it doesn't appear to me that a PAG
is created if you login as root, which in many cells doesn't have an
associated AFS ID. Using su from your regular account that already has
a PAG creates the root shell as a member of the PAG.
You are right! Seems like a bug or bad feature to me. I naively thought
because I was using AFS aware login (aix325+afs33) that every user would
automatically get a PAG. Seems that only accounts that have no matching
AFS principal fail to get a PAG (eg root, guest).
I wonder why that is so?
