Introduction The AFS Web Security Pack is an extension available for selected Web servers that enables system administrators to provide secure access via a Web browser to documents stored in the AFS filespace. This document provides information specific to this release of the AFS Web Security Pack. Note: Due the long filenames and file extensions used for the AFS Web Secure distribution files, download of the AFS Web Secure product to a PC sometimes results in incorrect filenames. Note that all AFS Web Secure distribution files are g-zipped tar files, even if the *.tar.gz file extension is lost during the download process. II. Installation Prerequisites Note: If you have installed a previous version of the AFS Web Security Pack, you must first remove the previous version, including any modifications made to your Apache Web server configuration and runtime configuration files before installing this version of the product. Your system must meet the following software and disk space requirements to install this version of the AFS Web Security Pack. Operating system: Solaris 2.5.1, AIX 4.2x, AIX 4.3, or AIX 4.3.1 Web server: Apache 1.2.6 or Apache 1.3.1 AFS (client): AFS Client 3.4a Disk Space: 650 KB Note: Due to security considerations, Transarc strongly recommends that the AFS Web Security Pack be used only on a server enabled with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). IV. Known Defects and Limitations * Due to a preexisting problem in the AFS UNIX product, the Apache server Fancy Indexing option does not function as expected when AFS directories are displayed. If the Fancy Indexing option is enabled on the Apache server, when a user initially browses an ACL-protected directory (with "system:anyuser l" access), the user is able to see file details for directories and links, but not for files. Once the user selects a file and enters a username and password, details for the files are then displayed. This problem is not caused by the AFS Web Security Pack or the Apache server, but is due to a defect in the UNIX-based AFS code. We are working to address this problem and will make an announcement when a corrected version is available. In the interim, please be aware of this limitation as you use the AFS Web Security Pack. *If the AFS Web Security Pack is used on the Apache server version 1.3.1, user directories cannot be directly accessed through the use of a special character such as a tilde (~) despite use of the Apache server User Directory directive. VII. AFS Web Security Pack Documentation Postscript and HTML versions of the documentation for the AFS Web Security Pack are available in the doc directory. VIII.
