AFS is a distributed file system.  My uni uses it (among other things)
to allow access to user directories across platforms -- I can mount my
$HOME on Windows, Mac, or *nix, from anywhere on the Internet.  In
Linux, it needs a kernel module to work, though (for obvious reasons).

It's pretty handy when you have something like 60,000 users...
