AFS Access Print

OpenAFS

OpenAFS is a software package released by IBM as freeware that allow computers operating anywhere in the world to connect with AFS servers seamlessly. This means that no matter what computer you are on, if OpenAFS is properly set up and an internet connection is present you will have full access to your files on the Mosaic system as if you were sitting in the College of Engineering. Please remember that access times to your files are all dependent on the speed of your connection to the internet... the faster the connection you have, the faster you'll be able to access your files. Also just like logging in at a Mosaic workstation you have a 25 hour time-limit for connectivity.
