[OpenAFS] any hack to get multiple read/write mirrors

My application is this:  to have a shared filesystem
between all offices of a company. in different cities
and countries.  the each office gets a server with a
1TB volume and this filesystem server runs linux or
freebsd.. or some free unix based os.  each office has
NT workstations that mount the shared volume (using
SAMBA or some such software) so its users can work on
files.. If something gets changed in 1 office, then it
should have that change propagated to all offices so
all people can see the change, which is why  original
the file locking is important.
