I suppose this question has been covered before but I do not seem
to have the answer. We have various cron jobs that run at night
and on the weekends. In some cases, the job needs to run with
ROOT capability in order to access certain local files and it also
needs an AFS token to access certain files in AFS.
Is there a "safe" way to periodically refresh the AFS token for
such jobs?
Suppose the power goes off during the weekend. Is there a way to
automatically get a new token at the end of the boot sequence?
