Problems (under W2000Pro)

1) AFSforWindowsNT.exe (in
http://www.openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.1.1a/winnt/)  is corrupted! when
running,  it fails unpacking

2) AFS client 1.0.4a for NT, if uninstalled, can not be reinstalled: any
attempts at rerunning it fails saying ' The AFS client could not be
started successfully You may not have authorization' and 'error
0x00042a' (login as Administrator, everything else unchanged with
respect to first installation that 'almost worked -see next note-;
uninstall/reinstall attempted many times with varying degrees of
intervening reboots)
2.bis) uninstall does not clean up the registry

3) AFS client 1.0.4a for NT 'almost always' fails getting tokens with
'unknown error 0x37' (before uninstalling/reinstalling, of course)

Anyone knows anything?
