AFS
view release on metacpan or search on metacpan
'cd' into that directory, make, test and install the modules.
You have to specify the location of the AFS system
libraries. While running the 'perl Makefile.PL' step you will be
prompted for the location of the AFS system libraries. If you
want to avoid that query, you should specify the environment
variable 'AFSPATH' before you start [1].
If your AFS system type is not yet known by the make file because
you can't run the "fs sysname" command, you can specify the
environment variable 'AFS_SYSNAME' before you start [2].
This is the sequence of commands to build the modules:
cd AFS-<version>
[1] this step is optional
setenv AFSPATH 'path_to_the_AFS_system_libraries' # tcsh-shell
export AFSPATH='path_to_the_AFS_system_libraries' # sh-shell
[2] this step is optional
setenv AFS_SYSNAME 'AFS_system_type' # tcsh-shell
export AFS_SYSNAME 'AFS_system_type' # sh-shell
perl Makefile.PL

make
make test
make install
make html ;#(if you want to get the HTML documentation, see also next section)
PLATFORMS
In the meantime I have only access to Linux machines. Therefore I
have tested this version of the AFS module bundle only on the
Linux platform with the following combinations
OS @sys compiler OpenAFS Perl (threaded/non-threaded)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Linux 64-bit amd64_linux26 gcc 1.4.11 5.10.0 non-threaded
amd64_linux26 gcc 1.4.12 5.10.0 non-threaded
amd64_linux26 gcc 1.4.12(*) 5.10.0 threaded
(*) => modified libraries libafsrpc.a
and libafsauthent.a
FEEDBACK
If you are building the modules on another architecture I would
appreciate a note to tell me how you got on. Although I am
particularly interested to hear about any problems you encounter
when building the system, I would still like to hear from you even
if you don't.
Things I particularly would like to know
* The Operating system name and version, e.g. SunOS 4.1.3
* Architecture, e.g. Solaris
* C compiler, e.g. gcc
* Where there any warnings/errors printed by the C compiler? If so
please send the exact output if possible.
* The Perl version
* The version of the AFS system libraries
KNOWN PROBLEMS
Under SunOS, several people have encountered problems while compiling
and installing the AFS module bundle.
