Hi Janine,

I'm getting the same problem you had, but mine is in WinXP.  Did you find a
solution?

problem: OpenAFS service starts, user logs in, clicks Drive Letters, Checks
drive z:/.  Up comes this dialog:

"afs was unable to map" the network  drive error 0x00000035

Any ideas?

I just finished installing OpenAFS for WindowsNT client 1.2.2b on a W2K =
Pro workstation. After I am done configuring it I am able to start the =
service without any problem, and I can get tokens, but as soon as I try =
to map a drive, it returns the following error:
"AFS was unable to map the network drive to the specified path in AFS. =
Check to make sure the drive letter is not currently in use. Error: =
0x00000035"

I tried using different drive letters, different paths, and even =
different cells but they all return the same message. The drives show up =
on the drive mapping list as being available, but as soon as I try to a) =
add a drive in addition to the two default drives (/afs and =
/afs/cellname/user) or b) click the checkbox next to a default drive =
mapping it errors out. I am able to map a Windows network drive using =
letters that return the error message through AFS. I have installed the =
same client (1.2.2b) on another W2K workstation with no trouble. The =
only main difference between the problem machine and my regular =
workstation is that the former has a RAID card and three striped drives. =
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Janine
