normally you would like to have a client running on the system from 
which you want to control the server; thus have a arla client running on 
the server if you are building a single system setup....
another option is to control the server from a different machine with 
only the client software (often the arla client and some utils from the 
openafs-server package, since they have implemented all options to 
actually control the server); this last option is not very easy to set 
up if you do not have at least one server up-and-running....

Hope this helpes...
