Hi,

I'm seeing the exact same thing. Have been for a long time, but never had proof it was the AFS client causing the right-click delay. I could send screen shots but its the same behavior already posted here. I've confirmed it using the pioctl debugging and fs whereis "my documents" command. I'm using v1.4.1 on a Windows 2003 advanced terminal server.

Thanks,

- Robbie

There is nothing wrong with using drive mappings.
My guess is that there is something wrong because the SamCompatible
name is not a prefix of the full Domain Name.

Lots of sites use domain logins without any delays.  So its something
unusual about your environment.

Another potential contributing factor is that domain logon scripts
automatically map AFS paths to drive letters, so I am not sure if I can
prevent those mappings from occurring and see what happens then.

What if you login with:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Actually, I was wrong about the delay, I was just trying soon after
login when those results were still cached. The output is different
though:

fs: Invalid argument; it is possible that My Documents is not in AFS.

The delay occurs after the first WNetAddConnection2 call in the case
of
both login forms.

ok.  What is the pioctl output when using that name form?

With that information, if I login with MSROSE-HULMAN\gurganbl instead
of
[EMAIL PROTECTED], I do not experience the delay.

There you go.  Its taking pioctl() many tries before it can
find the name form that matches the authentication name used
to login the session.  This name is required in order for
authentication to the AFS SMB server to succeed since that is
the only name that will be accepted over the loopback interface.

I don't have a solution for you.  The real fix for this is to
stop using an SMB server and instead begin use of a Network
Redirector.  Completing this work is a long time off.

Turn on pioctl() debugging (as per the debugging section of the

OpenAFS Release Notes), and then run the "fs whereis" test again.



I suspect you will find the problem is that your systems are having
a
hard time authenticating to the AFS Client Service.  In which case

all operations to AFS are suffering the same delays

There appears to be no difference in output of the command when
there
is
a delay and when there is not a delay:
