Even if you do a single cell, I'd hope you aren't relying on the individual organizations to configure AFS servers using normal AFS commands, configs, etc from the way you describe the organization admins. Getting 200 orgs who are not that technical (let alone ever seen AFS before) to admin their own cell -- or even just their own fileserver -- would be an interesting experience. So you're going to be going through some scripts or abstraction interface to automate most of it, anyway. The only difference the cell layout makes is how you implement the backend for such things; it should not make much difference to the users or even admins how it is done. -- Andrew Deason [email protected] _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
