The most common problem with a lot of existing documentation is that it has you install the kaserver, which is highly deprecated. Any new cell installation really should install a conventional kerberos server (MIT, Heimdal and the Windows Active Directory server all have been used as kerberos servers for various AFS cells). * [OpenAFS server tutorial for Debian Squeeze](http://openafs.dk/doku.php?id=server:start) * The Gentoo [OpenAFS Guide](http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/openafs.xml) From the Gentoo Linux distribution. Again, takes you through using kaserver, which is highly deprecated. * [Using NetBSD to provide AFS and Kerberos services](http://kula.tproa.net/talks/afsbpw2005) Talk from the 2005 AFS & Kerb Workshop, describing how to use [[NetBSD]] to provide AFS and Kerberos services. Some steps are [[NetBSD]] specific, but there are key bits of info in there on using a Heimdal KDC as your kerberos server. * [How to use Active Directory as your kerberos server for an AFS cell](http://www.pmw.org/afsbpw06/talks/shadow-AD.pdf) (pdf) * [AFS intro doc at Stanford](http://www.stanford.edu/services/afs/intro/) * [AFS into at IBM developerworks](http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/library/os-openafs-kerberos5/index.html)
