Well, not quite. The NetBSD AFS client components are available from
the "user-contributed" area at Transarc. The NetBSD port is supported
by me and others at MIT; it is not supported by Transarc.
Sorry, didn't mean to imply that it was supported by Transarc. :-)
Only that Transarc wouldn't let you have it unless you were already a
Transarc customer (for a different commercial OS, obviously).
The binary packages are in:
/afs/transarc.com/public/afs-contrib/bin/netbsd.client
and as Michael stated, you need to have your site AFS contact (someone
with permissions to fetch protected files from Transarc) get
those files.
