No one has written the code. The values are hard coded into the
daemon thread function.

On Windows I have done all of the work to extract the values from the
daemon thread function and make variables available. The work that
remains is:
(1) add code to obtain values from the registry that override the
defaults now set by a #define.
(2) write the pioctl() operations to set/get them
(3) implement a replacement for the AFS Control Panel so that they
can be set/get by a GUI.
Anyone want to contribute some code or funding to see that this
happens, please contact me.
