 Using

Windows 

 to login to afs, start menu -> All Programs -> OpenAFS -> Authentication (icon
is a lock icon)

this will put a lock icon w. a red X over it in your system tray. You can
double click on this icon to pop up a window where you can obtain afs tokens.

Tokens are what your afs client presents to the afs file server to authenticate
you.

For your username, you will use:

netid@CIT.CORNELL.EDU

having CIT.CORNELL.EDU in all caps is very important.

and use your netid password.

There will be a delay before you get tokens due to a dns problem on
CNF/Cornell's end -- the delay will go away once we get the problem fixed.

To access afs from windows, you can:

start menu -> run

\\afs\cnf.cornell.edu

 this will bring up the root of the cnf afs cell. You can map this path to a
drive letter

1. rt click on My Network Places

2. Choose Map Network Drive

3. Drive letter X (to match what we've done elsewhere)

4. Path should be //afs/cnf.cornell.edu
