There are four major implementations. [[OpenAFS]] was built from source released by [[Transarc]] ([[International Business Machines|IBM]]) in 2000<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080223002706/http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/library/os-afs.html Opening Up AFS]</ref>. Transarc software is now deprecated and is losing support. [[Arla (file system)|Arla]] is an independent implementation of the [[Andrew File System|AFS]] [[distributed file system]] developed at the [[Royal Institute of Technology]] in [[Stockholm]].
 
A fourth implementation of an AFS Client exists in the [[Linux kernel]] [[source code]] since at least version 2.6.10.<ref>[https://archive.today/20120710092252/http://lxr.linux.no/source/Documentation/filesystems/afs.txt?v=2.6.10 Linux kernel AFS documentation for 2.6.10]</ref> Committed by [[Red Hat]], this is a fairly simple implementation still in its early stages of development and therefore incomplete {{as of|2013|1|lc=on}}.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://lxr.linux.no/linux/Documentation/filesystems/afs.txt|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120801110657/http://lxr.linux.no/linux/Documentation/filesystems/afs.txt|url-status=dead|title=LXR linux/Documentation/filesystems/afs.txt|date=1 August 2012|archive-date=1 August 2012|website=linux.no|access-date=23 April 2018}}</ref>
