Unfortunately, you've illuminated here the very security hole which
makes NFS/AFS translaror unfavorable:  under normal circumstances, you'd
expect tokens to die when a session closes.  Tokens not associated with
a Process Authentication Group can all too easily be stolen by
intruders, making multiuser distrubuted platforms, like a PC-to-AFS
server, unadvisable.
