They mean from the AFS licensed source.  Just as Ascend is not allowed
to include the Security Dynamics client code due to license problems,
Merit is not allowed to include the AFS code.

It is not a file, just a function - I believe it may have a slightly
different name in AFS - check the "AFS Programmer's Reference: Authentication
Server Interface" - StringToKey.

Possibly, but probably not.

You can also pick up a copy of afs_string_to_key.c via anonymous FTP -
