The next time you have a problem please try to debug the failure
in the loopback code. The loopback installer can be executed outside of the installer. btw, which installer are you having problems with? The MSI or the EXE?
You can find the standalone loopback installer at

This has happened sporadically now, only with windows XP. I think this also includes SP2 though it doesn't seem consistent enough for me to really be sure.
Just installed the 1.3.77 client, and elected to install the loopback adapter. This was the default. After install completed, I found the loopback was NOT installed.
I will go ahead and add it, but I'd like to know what IP address and Netmask the openafs developers assigned to it for the default install.
As a side note, assigning an address of 10.10.10.10 with a netmask of 255.255.0.0 works,, but seems to cause problems when I wanted to connect to some of our network printers. We use a 10.xx address space for some printers here and windows was not able to route properly. I'm not tcpip routing guru but perhaps a different netmask would solve the issue..
