Christine, None of the cell management GUI tools work on Windows. Just don't install them or expect them to work. The "Server Manager" literally a tool for managing the cell not the client. > We're more familiar with the 1.6.x client here; can it be run on Win > Server 2012R2? The OpenAFS 1.6 clients on Windows use the SMB gateway interface that doesn't work on Windows 7 or above. FYI, as of July 29th all new installations of Windows will require Secure Boot. At that time Microsoft signed device drivers will become mandatory. AuriStor, Inc. hopes to have its Windows client approved for Microsoft's signatures by that date. Jeffrey Altman
