/usr/afs/etc

CellServDB - differs from the CellServDB file in /usr/vice/etc in that it contains only the names of the database servers in the cell the server belongs to. Having this file out of sync across db servers is very dangerous.

KeyFile - the master key for the cell, shared between all servers. For non-Kerberos sites, this is generated with bos setkey; for Kerberos sites, it is generated from a srvtab containing the appropriate principle with the asetkey utility.

License - Transarc-supplied file indicating the customer has purchased the right to use AFS. Not present in OpenAFS.

ThisCell - Name of the cell the server is serving data for. Not at all connected to the cell the machine is a client of, if any.

UserList - list of all the users in SUsers on the particular server.

krb.conf - name of the realm that pts entries should be mapped to principles in.

srvtab - not required by any server processes, but often present on servers of sites using MIT Kerberos. Contains a key of the form afs@REALM or optionally afs.cellname@REALM.
