[OpenAFS] Windows XP and AFS

Hello,
I've been trying to use AFS on Windows to load the user's profiles from an 
AFS 'share', which i've been able to do using the Transarc client (since 
the openafs one does not support global mapping). The problem is that as 
soon as the profile is loaded the afs token disapears (most of the time). 
So, to try to work around this problem i've tried to call a program that 
does the same as ms2mit and aklog together. Then the token appears, but 
sometimes it disappears a couple of seconds after the retrieval of the token.
This behavior happens about half the times, but when the token "survives" 
the client seems to work perfectly for the lenght of the token life.
Has anyone seen this kind of behavior, or has any clues as to why this happens?
Thank you in advance
