I've been meaning to get this started for awhile now, but time never is what
one would like it to be: endless.

<http://wiki.freebsd.org/AFS_using_OpenAFS_%2B_Arla>

Is a *very* basic start ... right now, its just a pointer to Arla (client) and
OpenAFS (server) ports for FreeBSD created by Alex Koss, and a link to some
NetBSD specific setup instructions.  I'm going to work on FreeBSD specific
ones, using that as a base, that will be on the Wiki itself ...

If anyone else does start working through the NetBSD instructions and wants to
submit stuff, just email me and I'll gladly add it .. kerberos, at least, is
something that I've *never* setup, so I'm starting from complete ground zero on
this ..

There used to be a decent chapter on setting up Kerberos in the FreeBSD
Handbook, not sure if it's still there.  At least if you're going to use Arla
as the AFS client, you'll need to install the Heimdal port rather than use the
native FreeBSD version as it's a bit newer.  We should get the version of K5
in the base system upgraded though, not sure if we have a maintainer right
now.
