+ This document describes how to set up an OpenAFS server using the Debian
+ packages. If you are not already familiar with the basic concepts of
+ OpenAFS, you should review the documentation at:
+ <http://www.openafs.org/doc/index.htm>
-Scripts are provided to configure a single database/file server. The
-afs-newcell script sets up the initial databases and configures
-bosserver. After running this script, get tokens in the cell and run
-the afs-rootvol script to populate the root volume and root.cell. A
-sample transcript of configuring an AFS cell can be found in
-/usr/share/doc/openafs-dbserver/configuration-transcript.txt.gz. This
-transcript assumes you are using MIT Kerberos and the openafs-krb5
-package. Similar steps could be taken with Heimdal.
+ particularly the AFS Administrator's Guide. This documentation is
+ somewhat out of date (it doesn't talk about how to use a Kerberos v5 KDC
+ instead of the AFS kaserver, for example), but it's a good introduction
+ to the basic concepts and servers you will need to run.
-Another issue is upgrades. It is likely that future versions of this
-package will install for example /usr/lib/openafs/fileserver.package
-instead of /usr/lib/openafs/fileserver. The postinst script will
-create links the actual binaries. Upgrades will not replace the old
-binaries, but a script will be provided to roll the links forward to
-the new versions. The intent is that people could install the new
-package on all their servers and then quickly move the links before
-restarting the bosserver.
+ The Debian OpenAFS packages follow the FHS and therefore use different
+ paths than the standard AFS documentation or the paths that experienced
+ AFS administrators may be used to. In the first column below are the
+ traditional paths, and in the second column, the Debian paths:
- Adding Additional Servers
+ /usr/afs/etc /etc/openafs/server
+ /usr/afs/local /etc/openafs/server-local
+ /usr/afs/db /var/lib/openafs/db
+ /usr/afs/logs /var/log/openafs
+ /usr/afs/bin /usr/lib/openafs
+ /usr/vice/etc /etc/openafs
-If you decide one server is not enough, here is roughly what needs to
-happen:
+ The AFS kaserver (a Kerberos v4 KDC) is not packaged for Debian. Any
+ new OpenAFS installation should use Kerberos v5 for authentication in
+ conjunction with either the tools packaged in the openafs-krb5 package
+ or the Heimdal KDC. When setting up a new cell, you should therefore
+ not set up a kaserver as described in the AFS Administrator's Guide, and
+ you will need to follow a slightly different method of setting the cell
+ key.
-1) Copy securely (using scp , encrypted Kerberized rcp or some other
- secure method) /etc/openafs/server to the new server.
+Creating a New Cell
-2) Start a bosserver.
+ For documentation on adding a server to an existing cell, see below.
-3) If the machine is to be a file server, create an fs instance using
- bos create. For file servers this is all you need to do.
+ These instructions assume that you are using MIT Kerberos and the
+ openafs-krb5 package. If you are using Heimdal instead, some of the
+ steps will be slightly different (Heimdal can write the AFS KeyFile
+ directly, for example, so you don't have to use asetkey). The
+ afs-newcell and afs-rootvol scripts are the same, however.
-4) For database servers, you also need to do a bos addhost on all
- servers (including the new server) to add the new server to
- /etc/openafs/server/CellServDB. Then create ptserver and vlserver
- instances.
+ /usr/share/doc/openafs-dbserver/configuration-transcript.txt.gz has a
+ transcript of the results of these directions, which you may want to
+ follow along with as you do this.
+
+ 1. If you do not already have a Kerberos KDC (Key Distribution Center,
+ the daemon that handles Kerberos authentication) configured, do so.
+ You can run the KDC on the same system as your OpenAFS db server,
+ although if you plan on using Kerberos for other things, you may
+ eventually want to use separate systems. If you do not have a
+ Kerberos realm set up already, you can do so in Debian with:
+
+ apt-get install krb5-admin-server
+ krb5_newrealm
+
+ This will install a KDC and kadmind server (the server that handles
+ password changes and account creations) on the local system. Please
+ be aware that the security of everything that uses Kerberos for
+ authentication, including AFS, depends on the security of the KDC.
+
+ The name of your Kerberos realm should, for various reasons, be in
+ all uppercase and be a domain name that you control, although
+ neither is technically required.
+
+ 2. It is traditional (and recommended) in AFS (and for Kerberos) to
+ give administrators two separate Kerberos principals, one regular
+ principal to use for regular purposes and a separate admin principal
+ to use for privileged actions. This is similar to the distinction
+ between a regular user and the root user in Unix, except that
+ everyone can have their own separate root identity. Kerberos
+ recommends username/admin as the admin principal for username, and
+ this will work for AFS as well.
+
+ If you have not already created such an admin principal for yourself
+ in your Kerberos realm, do so now (using kadmin.local on your KDC,
+ unless you have a local method that you prefer). Also create a
+ regular (non-admin) principal for yourself if you have not already;
+ this is the identity that you'll use for regular operations, like
+ storing files or reading mail.
+
+ If the KDC is not on the same system that the OpenAFS db server will
+ be on, you will also need to give your admin principal the rights to
+ download the afs keytab in /etc/krb5kdc/kadm5.acl by adding a lines
+ like:
+
+ username/admin@REALM *
+
+ where REALM is your Kerberos realm and username/admin is the admin
+ principal that you created. That line gives you full admin access
+ to the Kerberos v5 realm. You can be more restrictive if you want;
+ see the kadmind man page for the syntax.
+
+ 3. Install the OpenAFS db server package on an appropriate system with:
+
+ apt-get install openafs-dbserver openafs-krb5
+
+ The openafs-krb5 package will be used to create the AFS KeyFile.
+
+ As part of this installation, you will need to configure
+ openafs-client with the cell you are creating as the local cell name
+ and the server on which you're working as the db server. This name
+ is technically arbitrary but should, for various reasons, be a valid
+ domain name that you control; unlike Kerberos realms, it should be
+ in all lowercase. Enter the name of the local system when prompted
+ for the names of your OpenAFS db servers. Don't start the client;
+ that will happen below. For right now, say that you don't want it
+ to start at boot. You can change that later with dpkg-reconfigure
+ openafs-client.
+
+ If you have already installed openafs-client and configured it for
+ some other cell, you do need to configure it to point to your new
+ cell for these instructions to work. Stop the AFS client on the
+ system with /etc/init.d/openafs-client stop and then run:
+
+ dpkg-reconfigure openafs-client
+
+ pointing it to the new cell you're about to create instead.
+ Remember, your cell name should be in lowercase. If you have had to
+ do this several times, double-check /etc/openafs/CellServDB when
+ you're done and make sure that there is only one entry for your new
+ cell at the top of that file and that it lists the correct IP
+ address for your new db server.
+
+ In order to complete the AFS installation, you will also need a
+ working AFS client installed on that system, which means that you
+ need to install an OpenAFS kernel module. Please see:
+
+ /usr/share/doc/openafs-client/README.modules
+
+ for information on how to do that.
+
+ 4. Create an AFS principal in Kerberos. This is the AFS service
+ principal, used by clients to authenticate to AFS and for AFS
+ servers to authenticate to each other. It *must* be a DES key; AFS
+ does not support any other encryption type. Run kadmin.local on
+ your KDC and then, at the kadmin.local prompt, run:
+
+ addprinc -randkey -e des-cbc-crc:v4 afs
+
+ If your Kerberos realm name does not match your AFS cell name (if,
+ for instance, you have one Kerberos realm with multiple AFS cells),
+ use "afs/cell.name" as the name of the principal above instead of
+ just "afs", where cell.name is the name of your new AFS cell.
+
+ 5. On the db server, download this key into a keytab. If this is the
+ same system as the KDC, you can use kadmin.local again. If not, you
+ should use kadmin (make sure that krb5-user is installed), and you
+ may need to pass -p username/admin to kadmin to tell it what
+ principal to authenticate as. Whichever way you get into kadmin,
+ run:
+
+ ktadd -k /tmp/afs.keytab -e des-cbc-crc:v4 afs
+
+ (or afs/cell.name if you used that instead). In the message that
+ results, note the kvno number reported, since you'll need it later
+ (it will normally be 3).
+
+ Don't forgoet the -e des-cbc-crc:v4 to force the afs key to be DES.
+ You can verify this with:
+
+ getprinc afs
+
+ and checking to be sure that the only key listed is a DES key. If
+ there are multiple keys listed, delprinc the afs principal, delete
+ the /tmp/afs.keytab file, and then start over with addprinc, making
+ sure not to forget the -e option.
+
+ 6. Create the AFS KeyFile with:
+
+ asetkey add <kvno> /tmp/afs.keytab afs
+
+ (or afs/cell.name if you used that instead). <kvno> should be
+ replaced by the kvno number reported by kadmin. This tells AFS the
+ Kerberos key that it should use, making it match the key in the
+ Kerberos KDC.
+
+ 7. If the name of your Kerberos realm does not match the name of your
+ AFS cell, tell AFS what Kerberos realm to use with:
+
+ echo REALM > /etc/openafs/server/krb.conf
+
+ where REALM is the name of your Kerberos realm. If your AFS cell
+ and Kerberos realm have the same name, this is unnecessary.
+
+ 7. Create some space to use for AFS volumes. You can set up a separate
+ AFS file server on a different system from the Kerberos KDC and AFS
+ db server, and for a larger cell you will want to do so, but when
+ getting started you can make the db server a file server as well.
+ For a production cell, you will want to create a separate partition
+ devoted to AFS and mount it as /vicepa (and may want to make
+ multiple partitions mounted as /vicepb, /vicepc, etc.), but for
+ testing purposes, you can use the commands below to create a
+ zero-filled file, create a file system in it, and then mount it:
+
+ dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/lib/openafs/vicepa bs=1024k count=32
+ mke2fs /var/lib/openafs/vicepa
+ mkdir /vicepa
+ mount -oloop /var/lib/openafs/vicepa /vicepa
+
+ mke2fs will ask you if you're sure you want to create a file system
+ on a non-block device; say yes.
+
+ 8. Run afs-newcell. This will prompt you to be sure that the above
+ steps have been complete and will ask you for the Kerberos principal
+ to use for AFS administrative access. You should use the
+ username/admin principal discussed above.
+
+ At the completion of this step, you should see bosserver and several
+ other AFS server processes running, and you should be able to see
+ the status of those procesess with:
+
+ bos status localhost -local
+
+ Now, you should be able to run:
+
+ kinit username/admin@REALM
+ aklog cell.name -k REALM
+
+ where username/admin is the admin principal discussed above, REALM
+ is the name of your Kerberos realm, and cell.name is the name of
+ your AFS cell. This will obtain Kerberos tickets and AFS tokens in
+ your Kerberos realm and new AFS cell. You should be able to see
+ your AFS tokens by running:
+
+ tokens
+
+ Finally, you should be able to see the status of the AFS server
+ processes with:
+
+ bos status <hostname>
+
+ where <hostname> is the hostname of the local system, once you've
+ done the above. This tests authenticated bos access as your admin
+ principal (rather than using the local KeyFile to authenticate).
+
+ 9. Run afs-rootvol. This creates the basic AFS volume structure for
+ your new cell. It will prompt you to be sure that the above steps
+ are complete and then will ask you what file server and partition to
+ create the volume on. If you were following the above instructions,
+ use the local hostname and "a" as the partition (without the
+ quotes), which will use /vicepa.
+
+ After this command completes, you should be able to /bin/ls /afs and
+ see your local cell (and, if you aren't using dynroot, mount points
+ for several other cells). Note that if you're not using dynroot,
+ run /bin/ls rather than just ls to be sure that ls isn't aliased to
+ ls -F, ls --color, or some other option that would stat each file in
+ /afs, since this would require contacting lots of foreign cells and
+ could take a very long time.
+
+ You should now be able to cd to /afs/cell.name where cell.name is
+ the AFS cell name that you used. Currently, there isn't anything in
+ your cell. To make modifications, cd to /afs/.cell.name (note the
+ leading period) and make changes there. To make those changes show
+ up at /afs/cell.name, run vos release root.cell. For more details
+ on what you can do now, see the AFS Administrator's Reference.
+
+ 10. While this is optional, you probably want to add AFSDB records to
+ DNS for your new AFS cell. These special DNS records let AFS
+ clients find the db servers for your cell without requiring local
+ configuration. To do this, create a DNS record like:
+
+ <cell>. 3600 IN AFSDB 1 <server>.
+
+ where <cell> is the name of your AFS cell and <server> is the name
+ of your db server. Note the trailing periods to prevent the DNS
+ server from appending the origin. You can, of course, choose what
+ you prefer for the lifetime. The 1 is not a priority; it's a
+ special indicator saying that this record is for an AFS database
+ server.
+
+ If you have multiple db servers (see below for adding new ones), you
+ should create multiple records of this type, one per db server.
+
+ Congratulations! You now have an AFS cell. If any of the above steps
+ failed, please check the steps carefully and make sure that you've done
+ them all in order. If that doesn't reveal the cause of the problem,
+ please feel free to submit a bug report with reportbug. Include as many
+ details as possible on exactly what you typed and exactly what you saw
+ as a result, particularly any error messages.
+
+Adding Additional Servers
+
+ If you decide one server is not enough, or if you're adding a server to
+ an existing cell, here is roughly what you should do:
+
+ 1. Copy securely (using scp, encrypted Kerberos rcp, or some other
+ secure method) all of /etc/openafs/server to the new server.
+
+ 2. Install the openafs-fileserver package on the new server.
+
+ 3. If the machine is to be a file server, create an fs instance using
+ bos create:
+
+ bos create <host> fs fs -cmd /usr/lib/openafs/fileserver \
+ -cmd /usr/lib/openafs/volserver \
+ -cmd /usr/lib/openafs/salvager -localauth
+
+ For a file server, this is all you have to do.
+
+ 4. For database servers, also install openafs-dbserver and then use bos
+ addhost to add the new server to /etc/openafs/server/CellServDB:
+
+ bos addhost <server> <new-server>
+
+ for each db server <server> in your cell (including the new one).
+ Then, create ptserver and vlserver instances on the new server:
+
+ bos create <host> ptserver simple /usr/lib/openafs/ptserver \
+ -localauth
+ bos create <host> vlserver simple /usr/lib/openafs/vlserver \
+ -localauth
+
+ The existing servers should then propagate the database to the new
+ server. Note that you do not need to run a file server on a db
+ server if you don't want to (and larger sites probably will not want
+ to), but you always need to have the openafs-fileserver package
+ installed on db servers. It contains the bosserver binary and some
+ of the shared infrastructure.
+
+ 5. If you added a new db server, configure your clients to use it. If
+ you are using AFSDB records in DNS, you can just add a new record
+ (see point 10 in the instructions for creating a new cell).
+ Otherwise, clients will need to have the new server IP address added
+ to their /etc/openafs/CellServDB file (or /usr/vice/etc/CellServDB
+ for non-Debian clients using the standard AFS paths), and the client
+ will have to be restarted before it will know about the new db
+ server.
+
+ The standard rule of thumb is that all of your database servers and file
+ servers should ideally be running the same version of OpenAFS. However,
+ in practice OpenAFS is fairly good at backward compatibility and you can
+ generally mix and match different versions. Be careful, though, to
+ ensure that all of your database servers are built the same when it
+ comes to options like --enable-supergroups (enabled in the Debian
+ packages).
+
+Upgrades
+
+ Currently, during an upgrade of the openafs-fileserver package, all
+ services will be stopped and restarted. If openafs-dbserver is upgraded
+ without upgrading openafs-fileserver, those server binaries will not be
+ stopped and restarted; that restart will have to be done by hand.
+
+ It is possible that future versions of this package will install for
+ example /usr/lib/openafs/fileserver.package instead of
+ /usr/lib/openafs/fileserver and then create links to the actual binaries
+ in postinst. Upgrades would then not replace the old binaries, but
+ instead a script will be provided to roll the links forward to the new
+ versions. The intent is that people could install the new package on
+ all their servers and then quickly move the links before restarting the
+ bosserver. This has not yet been implemented.
