Hope you can clarify my on this newbie question:
In AFS I cannot export directories like in NFS, right?
No. If you look into the "volumes" you won't even recognize your data. You can access the data exclusively by the clients.
Everything I do, has to be made in AFS Volumes, right?
Well, not really everything AFS has more than the "volumes", but I think you'll understand.
Actually there is no "share" in AFS.I have to create all the users accounts, and all the things I want to "share" in AFS volumes, so that they can be viewed and updated by all clients that have access to it, right?
At least I won't know who's sharing with whom. That's just a "side effect" of having a distributed file system with it's own access control.
From a user point of view think of AFS as a file system. A file system like a windows partition where you have access from linux for whatever reason.
From the administrator perspective things are different.
