Can TC work with AFS file systems (those on CERN servers for instance)? or is it possible for Lynux systems only?

Since AFS clients are available for Windows - TC will most likely work with AFS.

or is it possible for Lynux systems only?

To a UNIX user, AFS disk space looks like a regular local disk; to Windows and Mac OS X users, it looks like a normal network drive.

EDIT: corrected spelling error ASF -> AFS
