I have Windows 7 Ultimate on the desktop machine here. With no changes:
AFS works fine at startup. If I create a VPN (Microsoft software) to an adjacent Server 2008 machine, AFS fails. If I disconnect the VPN, AFS works again (no reboot). This is repeatable. If I check the two Link-layer Topology boxes on the loopback adaptor properties box and reboot, I get: AFS works fine at startup. Create a VPN to Server machine, AFS fails. Wait 3-4 minutes, AFS starts working again. I have not had anyone verify this yet. I've observed the same on another Windows 7 virtual machine but I don't remember what flavor of Windows 7 it was.
