Hi All, Here's a patch against the current OpenAFS CVS HEAD that fixes a number of bugs on the Windows side of things
To apply: patch -p0 < openafs-1.2.11-bkbox.patch Summary of changes: 1. This actually compiles. I had to change some includes and libraries 2. Excel (and some other apps) do not like OpenAFS drives. Some programs (like Excel) try to enumerate netbios directories. At the root, they try to connect to a drive's IPC$ share. The current OpenAFS Netbios code returns "Not Implemented" to the IPC$ request. That reply confuses some applications. I've changed the reply to "Access Denied" and their problems go away. This fixes my earlier problems that I tried to resolve with "lmhosts". 3. Integrated Login fails The NSIS install does not put afslogin.dll in the registry, so it is no longer run at boot time. Good riddance! (see HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TransarcAFSDaemon\Netwo rkProvider\AuthentProviderPath) 3. Restoring network drives in afscreds. afscreds does not always restore network drives. You'll notice that after setup runs the first time, you may have to explicitly check the network drive box. Now afscreds always tries to restore network drives. To reproduce the problem: 1. uncheck network drives in afscreds 2. stop afscreds 3. disconnect network drives in explorer 4. start afscreds before the patch, the drives would not get reconnected.
