This document is for installing OpenAFS and Kerberos for Windows on your Windows x64 machine. As of this writing, the latest version of OpenAFS known to work with this method is v. 1.5.6100, so that is what it will reference. Should later versions be proven to work in the future, simply replace any reference to 1.5.6100 with the appropriate version.



  • Navigate to \\wolftech\ece\it\software\wolfcall\openafs\
Copy the following files to a folder on your computer (lets assume C:\TEMP\)
  • kfw-3-2-2.msi
  • krb5.ini
  • map-homedir.vbs
  • NCSU.mst
  • openafs-32bit-tools-en_US-1-5-61.msi
  • openafs-en_US-64bit-1-5-61.msi
  • Open a command prompt and input the following:
cd C:\TEMP\  
  • (or wherever you copied the files)
msiexec /qb /i "openafs-en_US-64bit-1-5-61.msi"TRANSFORMS="NCSU.mst"
  • Wait for this install to finish. Say NO to the restart.
msiexec /qb /i "openafs-32bit-tools-en_US-1-5-61.msi"
  • Wait for this install to finish.
msiexec /qb /i "kfw-3-2-2.msi"
  • Wait for this install to finish.
  • Copy krb5.ini to C:\Program Files (x86)\MIT\Kerberos\bin\
  • Restart the computer
  • Tada!
