The cell you claim this + workstation belongs to is not in that file. Enter the host names of the + database servers separated by spaces. IMPORTANT: If you are creating a new + cell and this machine is to be a database server in that cell, only enter + this machine's name; add the other servers later after they are + functioning. Also, do not enable the AFS client to start at boot on this + server until the cell is configured. When you are ready you can edit + /etc/openafs/afs.conf.client to enable the client. + +Template: openafs-client/thiscell +Type: string +_Description: AFS cell this workstation belongs to: + AFS filespace is organized into cells or administrative domains. + Each workstation belongs to one cell. Usually the cell is the DNS + domain name of the site. + +Template: openafs-client/cachesize +Type: string +Default: 50000 +_Description: Size of AFS cache in kB: + AFS uses an area of the disk to cache remote files for faster + access. This cache will be mounted on /var/cache/openafs. It is + important that the cache not overfill the partition it is located + on. Often, people find it useful to dedicate a partition to their + AFS cache. + +Template: openafs-client/run-client +Type: boolean +Default: true +_Description: Run Openafs client now and at boot? + Normally, most users who install the openafs-client package expect AFS to + be mounted automatically at boot. However, if you are planning on + setting up a new cell or are on a laptop, you may not want it started at + boot time. If you choose not to start AFS at boot, run + service openafs-client force-start to start the client when you wish + to run it. + +Template: openafs-client/afsdb +Type: boolean +Default: true +_Description: Look up AFS cells in DNS? + In order to contact an AFS cell, you need the IP addresses of the cell's + database servers. Normally, this information is read from + /etc/openafs/CellServDB. However, if Openafs cannot find a cell in that + file, it can use DNS to look for AFSDB records that contain the + information. + +Template: openafs-client/crypt +Type: boolean +Default: true +_Description: Encrypt authenticated traffic with AFS fileserver? + AFS provides a weak form of encryption that can optionally be used between + a client and the fileservers. While this encryption is weaker than DES + and thus is not sufficient for highly confidential data, it does provide + some confidentiality and is likely to make the job of a casual attacker + significantly more difficult. + +Template: openafs-client/dynroot +Type: select +__Choices: Yes, Sparse, No +Default: Yes +_Description: Dynamically generate the contents of /afs? + /afs generally contains an entry for each cell that a client can talk to. + Traditionally, these entries were generated by servers in the client's + home cell. However, OpenAFS clients can generate the contents of /afs + dynamically based on the contents of /etc/openafs/CellServDB and DNS. + . + If you generate /afs dynamically, you may need to create + /etc/openafs/CellAlias to include aliases for common cells. (The syntax + of this file is one line per alias, with the cell name, a space, and then + the alias for that cell.) + . + The Sparse option is the same as Yes except that, rather than populating + /afs from /etc/openafs/CellServDB immediately, cells other than the local + cell will not appear until they are accessed. Cell aliases as set in the + CellAlias file are shown as normal, although they may appear to be + dangling links until traversed. + +Template: openafs-client/fakestat +Type: boolean +Default: true +_Description: Use fakestat to avoid hangs when listing /afs? + Because AFS is a global file space, operations on the /afs directory can + generate significant network traffic. If some AFS cells are unavailable + then looking at /afs using ls or a graphical file browser may hang your + machine for minutes. AFS has an option to simulate answers to these + operations locally to avoid these hangs. You want this option under most + circumstances.
