More to the point.   The cache manager doesn't have any access to the
Access Control List data.  All the cache manager has is the set of
permissions that were granted to a particular AFS token.  If that token
was associated with a particular local uid then the cache manager in the
absence of an AFS token or connectivity to a file server *might* be
configured to continue to offer access to the data by that particular
uid.  If the token was obtained with an arbitrary Process Authentication
Group and that PAG no longer exists, there is nothing for the cache
manager to use in deciding what permissions to grant.

The protection database contains the memberships of groups and the
mapping of user names and group names to ID numbers that are stored in
the Access Control Entries.  The protection database doesn't store any
of the ACL data.  The ACL data is private metadata stored on the file
server and is not exposed to the cache manager.  Therefore, there is no
benefit to local copies of this data.

There are two broad sets of problems that must be designed for before
disconnected mode can be truly functional:

1. What are the access control semantics of offline usage?

The Windows offline mode for CIFS provides a local disk per user cache
of the files and directories that are to be available offline.  As long
as the local copy is being used the user has full permissions on the
file regardless of what the network permissions were.  The network
permissions only matter whe

This is not exactly true; in normal operation, it is the fileserver that
consults the protection database and determines whether a user is
authorized to access a given resource.

I don't think that having a local protection database is a fruitful area
of research; the ubik database synchronization protocol is not really
scalable, and is generally used with only 3 or 5 peers.  (There is also a
hard cap in the current implementation, which might be 16; I forget the
exact number.)

I think what you want would require further development on the offline
mode, which in its current state remains an experimental feature but has
not seen any significant resources invested in it for several years.

I do not have an estimate for the amount of work that would be necessary,
but will say that I expect it to be measured in man-years.

you might want to try

 allow_weak_crypto = yes

in krb5.conf but if they the realm is v4 _only_, then you nay need a
krb.conf and old v4 tools. In that case, I would try good old Heimdal

Steven,

I believe the Global Foundries cell is still using the IBM AFS kaserver
for authentication.  The klog.krb5 and kinit/aklog authentication
methods will not work with it.  Only the kauth version of klog can be
used to authenticate with the kaserver.

Yes I have the openafs-krb5 package. Should I try removing that one?
Unfortunately the IT infrastructure in question is far outside of my
influence, so it is what it is. Brian, I'm not sure what the kerberos realm
would be in this case. Did AFS with kerb V4 use them at all? klist from an
existing cell machine returns:
klist: No credentials cache found (ticket cache FILE:)

Sounds like you have the openafs-krb5 package installed ... but I really

On Linux by default you will be seeing a synthetic root volume
(-dynroot) generated from CellServDB entries. If you want to create
short names in a dynroot, you list them in the CellAlias file. (OpenAFS
has manpages; `man CellAlias` should work to see the documentation.)

Alternately you can turn off -dynroot in /etc/sysconfig/openafs, and you
will get the same real root.afs.readonly that the AIX system sees.

In both cases you will need to restart the OpenAFS client for the change
to take effect.

For starters, OpenAFS is not a local file system like NTFS.  It is not
something that can be installed on local disk and then exported using
CIFS to OSX clients.  The OpenAFS Windows client and OSX clients are
file system clients that provide access to file system storage servers
from dedicated AFS file servers.  You could build an AFS cell (volume
location database, protection database, and a fileserver) and use your
existing Active Directory as the Kerberos realm.  Then install the OSX
OpenAFS client and copy your data to your
/afs/local-cell/some-volume-path/.  By installing the OpenAFS Windows
client on a Windows Server you could then access the data in
\\afs\local-cell\some-volume-path\ to copy the data to the local disk.

However, if all you need is a one time copy I would suggest using an
archival tool such a zip, b2zip, 7zip, etc. to compress the entire tree
of files into a single file and then copy it directly from OSX to the
Windows Server via CIFS.

RE: [OpenAFS] Request for Assistance with OpenAFS

[James Bricknell]

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the reply. The paths in use aren't as long as 32, 767 characters, 
but the 32,767 limit cannot be utilised. NTFS does indeed allow for a maximum 
limit of a path that is 32,767 characters in length, but the problem is caused 
by the applications that access the file system. Most Windows applications, 
including Explorer in Server 2008 R2 are written to an older API for backwards 
compatibility, and it is this that creates the 255 character limit problem.

I think that the maximum path that we have is probably in excess of 1000 
chracters, which I agree is excessive, but I don't make the rules here!

Regards,

James

According to Wikipedia, NTFS has max 255 characters in filename and max 32k 
characters in pathname. HFS+ has max 255 characters in filename and unlimited 
path length. Do you really have such long paths (more than
32,767 characters!!!)?

Hopefully this is a quick and stupid question.

I have Mac clients on the network who have data in deep folder
structures with long filename paths, well in excess of the Windows
256(255) character limit, and they need to copy their data across onto a
Windows 2008 R2 Server, which obviously fails when the length of the
filename goes over this limit.

If I install Open AFS on this Windows server, will this allow the
clients to successfully copy the data to a share on an NTFS formatted
volume on the Windows box? Also, if version 1.7 is implemented as a
native Windows file system, would I need to format a disk or partition
on the Windows box as an AFS volume for the Mac users to be able to copy
their long filename structures without issue, and would this data be
able to be browsed locally on the Windows server following copying it
across?

Sorry, OpenAFS does not work that way.

And the Windows Server of OpenAFS is not really able to run currently,
as untested and not supported.

OpenAFS does NOT share existant filestructures of a existant server to
other clients (thats what SMB/MS filesharing does).

OpenAFS needs dedicated servers with dedicated data partitions which
save OpenAFS data in a own format on disk.

My suggestion for you: do shorten the filepath. Maybe with symlinks or
junction points.

The problem is (unfortunately) a regression in Windows 7 that the
OpenAFS developers cannot work around.  Microsoft has a reproducible
test case and they are working on identifying the root cause of the issue.

At the same time, a native AFS redirector is under development that will
permit AFS to be accessed without relying upon the Windows SMB and
Netbios subsystems.

RE: [OpenAFS] Request for Assistance with OpenAFS - AIX v6.1 build attempt fails with .yylex undefined symbol

[Kieffer, Catherine]

How do I generate a proper bug report for those binaries?   

I will download 1.4.12 and try it.

I didn't see yacc as a source from the IBM website, but I did load bison.

I don't understand your last comment since I don't normally build much.  Unless 
it is related to my
having installed bison.  I also installed flex at one point just in case even 
though the IBM lex is also installed
as part of the IBM development tools.

1) 1.4.12 is out

somehow you have an object file for error_table.o already? it's not
shown as being compiled above, nor the yacc command that generated the
source file.

yylex comes from yacc.

RE: [OpenAFS] Request for Assistance with OpenAFS - AIX v6.1 build attempt fails with .yylex undefined symbol

[Kieffer, Catherine]

One final update.

I finally found and downloaded the 1.4.12 binary.  
First attempt crashed my computer again right after the output of afsd starting.

   [663]  /usr/vice: cd /etc
   [664]  /etc: ./rc.afs
   ./rc.afs: Loading 64 bit kernel AFS modules
   afsd: All AFS daemons started.
   login as: root

2nd attempt I wiped out the  /usr/vice/cache directory.
Still crashed after message about afsd starting.  Didn't even get a chance
to access the volume to get it to crash like the 1.4.11 binary.

   [1333]  /etc: ./rc.afs
   ./rc.afs: Loading 64 bit kernel AFS modules


   afsd: All AFS daemons started.

I was able to build the 1.4.12 source without all the self created headaches 
from the last version.
I cleared the cache first since that seems to be a sticking point and what was 
there was from trying to
run the problem binary.  It started great and worked.

   [1380]  /usr/vice/etc: /etc/rc.afs
   /etc/rc.afs: Loading 64 bit kernel AFS modules

   afsd: All AFS daemons started.

   fs: new sysname list set.
   fs: new sysname set.
   [1382]  /usr/vice/etc:
   [1382]  /usr/vice/etc:
   [1382]  /usr/vice/etc: cd /afs/hekimian.com/@sys/local/bin
   [1383]  /afs/hekimian.com/@sys/local/bin: ls -al

If you want me to do anything else let me know.  I figure I have a couple of 
days before the engineers realize the computer
is now working as needed.  At that point my free wheeling access to it will be 
severely restricted.

make dest; you'll get rs_aix61/dest/(*) which is what you get from the web site.

[Kieffer, Catherine]

First, thank you for all your assistance so far.

That got rid of the error at the end.  I am going to have to read through all 
the output I think.  I only need the client, so that
it wouldn't install everying into my OS, I ran this command.

make install DESTDIR=/home/ckieffer/afs

No root.client, and for the few files I checked, nothing to match what goes 
into /usr/vice/etc/dkload and other areas there.  
How do  you get it to create the root.client files?

For some reason, despite the fact that you have an AIX system, your system
is trying to build the PAM modules.  I'm not sure why this is, since
acinclude.m4 has:

power*-ibm-aix6.1*)
AFS_SYSNAME="rs_aix61"
enable_pam="no"
;;

which should disable that, and it looks like that code was added at the
same time as AIX 6.1 support.

You may actually be able to ignore this error, since you don't care about
the PAM modules anyway.

That should be fine. Try uninstalling bison, if it's segfaulting

bison's broken, apparently. it crashed. see if you can find and install yacc.

RE: [OpenAFS] Request for Assistance with OpenAFS - AIX v6.1 build attempt fails with .yylex undefined symbol

[Kieffer, Catherine]

Along with the below, after thinking about the .o file you mentione, I started 
from scratch and received different errors.  
Not sure what to make of them.   I also uninstalled flex the second time hoping 
maybe it was conflict between lex and flex, but no such luck.

How do I generate a proper bug report for those binaries?   

I will download 1.4.12 and try it.

I didn't see yacc as a source from the IBM website, but I did load bison.

I don't understand your last comment since I don't normally build much.  Unless 
it is related to my
having installed bison.  I also installed flex at one point just in case even 
though the IBM lex is also installed
as part of the IBM development tools.

1) 1.4.12 is out
2) bug reports on those binaries if they do not work would be
appreciated. it built to completion for me.

An improper one is fine, i'll ask for more info. Probably information
about the processor and patches applied to the OS

It may well be. I suspect yacc's options are hardcoded in this case
because a "proper" AIX dev environment has only lex and yacc and bison
and flex simply weren't considered.

somehow you have an object file for error_table.o already? it's not
shown as being compiled above, nor the yacc command that generated the
source file.

yylex comes from yacc.

I am unfamiliar with this problem and there is insufficient information
provided to even guess.  Error 5 is Access Denied.

Please submit a bug report at openafs-b...@openafs.org.  Attach to that
report a copy of an installation log file generated by manually
executing the installer:

  msiexec /i  /l*v 

Hopefully the logfile might provide some clues.

Be sure to include the version number of the installer as part of the
report.

As documented in the Release Notes, the afscreds (AFS authentication
tool) has been deprecated for many years now.  One of the primary
reasons has been due to the existence of the unreliable drive mapping
functionality and the service start/stop functionality.
In 1.5.68, the drive mapping and service start/stop pages were removed.

Drive letter mapping should be performed using the Explorer Shell.
You can map a drive letter to any path beginning with \\AFS including
specific volumes using \\AFS\cell#volume\
