You could try natkeep, I've got an OSX oriented page with a link to the
original source up at:
<http://www.ibiblio.org/macsupport/afs/natkeep.html>
The only advantage it yields, assuming it works for you, is that the
packets tapping the port on the nat die there, instead of going all the way
back to the servers.

I guess cronning a 'fs checkservers' for every 2 minutes works well

The standard suggestion to people experiencing AFS disconnections after
idling on a NAT is to increase the UDP mapping timeout on the router.
Unfortunately, this is impossible for the majority of idiotic "routers"
sold in stores with proprietary firmware. Is it possible for the AFS
client to send a periodic keepalive packet itself for this purpose,
similar to the OpenSSH client? If I recall correctly, there is even a
"ping" packet type specified in Rx for this purpose.
