Summary
Find out if AFS is working correctly in the U-M environment, or troubleshoot a problem with AFS.
Environment
As written, this applies to Linux and Mac computers. It may also apply to Windows, but that environment was not tested by the authors.
Directions
- Open a terminal window.
- You can run the commands
klist to find out if you have a Kerberos ticket and/or tokens to check for an AFS token.
- Use the command
kinit uniqname@UMICH.EDU to get a Kerberos ticket.
- Run
aklog to obtain an AFS token (or click "Get new Token" in the graphical window, say when using the Auristor client on a Mac).
- Optionally, check for a token with the
tokens command.
- Try to access /afs/umich.edu.
For testing purposes, it is useful to know the kdestroy and unlog commands, which remove your Kerberos tickets and AFS tokens, respectively.
