We tried these options and did not like then. In the end we just 
compiled MIT krb with version 4 support and made at least one afs  DB 
server in each geographic site in our cell a MIT kdc server as well. 
Then the windows users just have to use our standard afsdcell.ini file.
Since we moved to this setup we have seen a lot less windows AFS client 
crashes. We still see a few if we have a network problem with a router 
etc as the windows client stops as soon as it can not contact the servers.

Presently have ~900 windows clients in our labs with ~400000 logins so 
far this year by upwards of 6000 users who map/access their home 
directories in afs space at each login with mandatory profiles with 
favorites, my documents redirected into AFS home directory.

Cheers
