Citrix and OpenAFS have worked together for years with integrated logon
as part of an Active Directory domain.  Citrix is not your problem.

The OpenAFS Network Provider is either being loaded or its not.  The
OpenAFS Network Provider doesn't know anything about OpenLDAP so it
isn't going to know how to query it to find out where the home directory
is located.  You will have to provide your own Network Provider that
performs the necessary configuration.
