AFS is a distributed file system that enables users to share and
|
|
|
|
|
access all of the files stored in a network of computers as easily as
|
|
|
|
|
they access the files stored on their local machines. The file system is
|
|
|
|
|
called distributed for this exact reason: files can reside on many
|
|
|
|
|
different machines, but are available to users on every machine.
