This is a web-based collaboration for +collecting, maintaining, and distributing information about OpenAFS, an +open-source implementation of the AFS distributed filesystem. + +OpenAFS is a caching, distributed, network-based filesystem for securely and +efficiently sharing files over a private network or over the internet. OpenAFS +stores files on file server machines. OpenAFS clients read and write data to +the file servers. Data is cached locally by clients, making subsequent reads +very fast. File servers automatically notify clients when data is +changed, keeping data in sync. OpenAFS clients integrate with the client +operating system to create a seamless network file system. Client side support +is provided for wide-range of operating systems, including Windows, MacOS, +Solaris, and Linux. + +### Key features + + * global namespace + * location transparency + * client-side caching + * read-only replication + * access control lists + * kerberos integration + +## Getting started + + * [[Getting started|GettingStarted]] + * [Documentation][3] + * [[Contributed guides and information|GuidesAndInfo]] + * [[Where to get help|WhereToGetHelp]] + * [[Frequently asked questions|AFSFrequentlyAskedQuestions]] + * A [[list of sites using OpenAFS|ListOfSitesUsingOpenAFS]] + * [[Binary Packages Available from Third Parties|BinaryThirdParty]] + +## Get involved + + * A [[list of tiny and simple tasks|TinySimpleTasks]] + * [[Contributing scripts and tools|Contrib]] + * [[Maintaining documentation|MaintainingDocumentation]] + * OpenAFS [[developer documentation|OpenAFSDevelopers]] + * OpenAFS project [[infrastructure|openafsinfrastructure]] + +## About this wiki + + * How to use this [[wiki|ikiwiki]] + * Try out the wiki [[sandbox]] + * [[Site Map|WikiSiteMap]] + * [[Orphaned pages|WikiOrphanedPages]] + * [[Broken links|WikiBrokenLinks]] + + +[1]: images/andy_juggles.jpg "Andy Juggles" +[2]: http://www.openafs.org "OpenAFS" +[3]: http://docs.openafs.org/ "OpenAFS Documentation"
