[OpenAFS] Windows command line

I was trying to find if there were command line tools for mapping AFS
directories to drive letters.  I am running OpenAFS on a Windows 2000
laptop, and therfore sometimes it is not attached to the network.  I
already have the AFS service set to load in a batch file (my AFS name is
not the same as my Windows name, so integrated login would fail).  In
Windows usually you can do a "net use U: \\server\share", but the one that
showed up when I was offline (\\<machinename>-AFS\home) doesn't work.  I
would also like to keep from having the "AFS Credentials" launcher in the
StartUp folder, as that fails *every* time (since I cannot do integrated
login).  I couldn't find anything in a web search or skimming through the
documentation.

BTW: a suggestion on the maillist archves;  is there a way to make them
searchable across *all* months at once?  It's too awkward to have to open
each month seperately and then do a search on each one.
