NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     afslog - obtains AFS tokens

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     afslog  [-uvh]   [--cells=cell]   [-c   cell]   [-k   realm]
[--realm=realm] [-p
            path] [--paths=path] [--unlog] [args]

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The  afslog  command obtains AFS tokens for the cell or path
args.  args is
     treated as a path if it contains the characters ., .., or /.
If not, it
     is treated as a cellname or the beginning of a cellname.

     The  -c, --cells, -p and --path flags can be used to resolve
ambiguities
     between cells and paths.

     If afslog fails to guess the Kerberos realm to  get  tickets
for, -k realm
     can be specified.

     If  the  -u  or --unlog flag is given any tokens are removed
and all other
     arguments are ignored.

CAVEATS    [Toc]    [Back]

     afslog might fail to guess the Kerberos realm to get tickets
for (for instance
  if  the volume location servers of the cell does not
reside in the
     kerberos realm that holds the AFS service key, and the  correct realm
     isn't  the same as the cell name or the local realm (this is
not a common
     problem)).  The flag -k can be  used  to  give  a  hint.  It
should not be used
     unless  there  is a problem, since all tickets will be taken
from the specified
 realm and this is not (usually) preferred.
