If "LogonOptions" is set to 0, there is nothing configured to obtain AFS
tokens.  If tokens are obtained by Network Identity Manager, it will be
when Network Identity Manager performs an auto-renewal which is not at a
specific time.  Obtaining AFS Tokens at logon time is performed by
winlogon.exe/mpnotify.exe when it calls the NPLogonNotify() function of
the afslogon.dll.
