I am curious about three things.

a. Is there a command line utility to do it, and if yes, which?
   klog does not appear to have a key (-setpag does something else, right?)

b. How long is the lifetime of these tokens, and where are they kept?
   If all user's processes exit, do they stay behind?

c. Is it a property of OpenAFS or Transarc AFS?
