As was pointed out, do to the way AFS File Caching works, you will
"never" get AFS to work with your former problem (multiple hosts
accesing an Office document). Having a single host access an Outlook
file, however, we should be able to do (multiple locks on one client).
See JHutz's email for a better explanation on why this is the case.
The short answer is that cache invalidation is done on whole files,
not on cache chunks.
