[OpenAFS] Status of global drives in windows version

[Lawrence Greenfield]

[...]
   I have just one issue with afs mounted drives that I can't figure out.  Why 
   does the AFS client label them as "Disconnected Network Drive" under the 
   explorer interface?  That bugs me and my users.  I think it is a hold-over 
   from the migration of code from NT4.0 to Win2000.  In fact, Transarc never 
   officially supported Windows XP.  I don't remember the "Disconnected 
   Network Drive" problem under NT4.0.

I've seen other problems with them, as well. Well, one other problem.

I have "My Documents" redirected to the global drive Z. The latest
Microsoft Media Player beta refuses to put anything in My Documents/My
Music. I don't know what it doesn't like; it doesn't give an error
message but silently fails to do anything.

This is on Windows XP.
