I don't think so. AFS stores special files in the file system. I
don't know if it would work with a Samba or NFS-mounted filesystem.
I don't think anyone has actually tested that. What you would need
to do is something like:
mount NetApp onto Linux:/vicepX
start AFS Server on Linux
This may or may not actually work. YMMV. Ideally, we would want to
build an AFS server for NetApp. Or perhaps re-install the NetApps
with another OS.
