  My ulterior motive is to see the AFSWEB component of OpenAFS promoted to

  following IBM's termination of support of it.

I don't like afsweb.  I don't want my password leaving my workstation.  How
many users actually check their browser certs to make sure they are giving
their password to the proper authority?

We have been working on some alternatives, described here:
