The Andrew File System was developed as part of the AndrewProject * The Andrew File System is a NetworkFileSystem * The Andrew File System doesn't use traditional Unix permissions, but instead uses full ACL's * The Andrew File System supports having multiple replicated servers allowing for high [Reliability] and [Availability] * The Andrew File System uses [Kerberos] for Authentication * AFS can also dedicate part of your local machine for caching files allowing for very fast access to files even if you have a slow link to the AFS servers. * Originally called "Vice" (the Andrew Toolkit was known as 'Virtue') * AFS originally copied entire files over when you edited them, this was slow for large files, however this has been fixed now for a while.
