Sure, but it's not an afs issue. The problem is windows: you can't get
it work like linux/unix. I mean, having profile directories on AFS,
logging with a kerberos KDC, getting home directory paths from nis/ldap.
So, something really stupid: disjoining what is not a single part,
authorization, user informations and home directories with ldap, file
system with afs.

I will do it since I'm interested. It takes time during my phd, I know,
but I think it's worth it.

Complete compatibility with self-created tokens. That's a good thing. I
will read what klog does and try to reproduce it. Note, I'm talking
about a KDC-based AFS, so no kaserver.
