Well,
from my point of view AFS on Mac is possible, I use it daily.
Unfortunately Accessing to you AFS-Homedir does not work currently on
Mac OS 10.5. On 10.4 it does. That means, if you have your homedir and
useraccount locally on your iMac you can have access of AFS-data but
loggin in as LDAP-User with kerberos-ticket and AFS-Token and AFS-
Homedir is not possible at the moment.
If you want to get only access to AFS do following:
get Kerberos Extra:
http://web.mit.edu/macdev/KfM/Common/Documentation/osx-kerberos-extras.html
get OpenAFS client of Mac OS:
http://openafs.org/macos.html
edit /Library/Preferences/edu.mit.Kerberos

[libdefaults]
login_logout_notification = afslog
default_realm = $YOUR_KERBEROS_REALM$
dns_fallback = no
[realms]
$YOUR_KERBEROS_REALM$ = {
kdc =$URL_OF_KERBEROS_SERVER$
}
[domain_realm]
$YOUR_DOMAIN$ = $YOUR_KERBEROS_REALM$
---
be sure that $YOUR_KERBEROS_REALM$ is written in capital letters, and
$YOUR_DOMAIN$ in lower case letters
write your standard AFS-Cell to
/var/db/openafs/etc/ThisCell
as use lower case letters
and add the AFS-Server you'd like to access to in
/var/db/openafs/etc/CellServDB

Write something after # these are no comments!
use kinit to get our kerberos-ticket
and aklog to get our AFS-token - after you have gotten your ticket

okay -- I just bought an iMac .. it has an openafs on it (or what
looks like it).. I didn't put it there. I have no clue how to get it
configured.

I heard that openafs is now (or will be) included in Mac OS X.5?
Is this just a rumor -- or is it close to true? And if it is close
to true,
does anyone have any details about things like additional cool new
gui tools
for managing pts groups and acls???
Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) has been out for months and it does NOT
include AFS. That said Mac OS X includes kerberos since 10.3 or
earlier.
