afs5log(8)

🎀 NAME 🎀

hiii bestie 💖 welcome to the afs5log(8) page from the System Administrator's Manual — yes, that's the manual name, and we're gonna make it make sense. The command is afs5log, and it's an AFS token initializer. Slay. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so here's the exact summoning ritual, no cap:

afs5log [ [-v] [-5] [-k] [-p path] [cell[=principal] ] ] [...]

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

afs5log uses Kerberos to obtain AFS tokens for the named cells. If no cell is named, tokens are obtained for the local cell. If the principal name of the afs service for the cell is known, the cell name may also be given in the form cell=principal_name. Attempts are made to obtain Kerberos IV credentials first, and if that fails, afs5log will create Kerberos 5 (2b-style) tokens. It's giving "try the old vibe first, then the newer vibe." 🦋

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

• -v — turns on verbose mode. afs5log will print debugging messages while it does its work. Use more than once to get more detail. 👀
• -p path — determine which cell the specified path resides in, and obtain tokens for that cell. path girlie gets her own cell token. 🌸
• -s strategy — overrides the default token-setting strategy ("2b") with the named strategy. Recognized strategy names include:
  • rxk5 — rxk5 (requires OpenAFS 1.6 or later)
  • 2b — rxkad "2b" (requires OpenAFS 1.2.8 or later)
• -5 — skip attempts to use Kerberos IV and just use 2b-style tokens, which are only supported by OpenAFS 1.2.8 and later. lowkey committing to the 2b lifestyle. 💅
• -k — skip attempts to use Kerberos IV and use rxk5-style tokens, which are only supported by OpenAFS 1.6 and later. rxk5 main character energy, periodt. 👑
• -n — assume that, if a cell name and a realm name differ only by case, that the name of the AFS service's principal name doesn't include an instance. case-difference detective behavior fr fr. 🔍

Probably, but let's hope not. If you find any, please file them in the bug database at http://bugzilla.redhat.com/ against the "pam_krb5" component. not me manifesting zero bugs 🙈
