This should be OK in my case

I haven't found it in any available documentation but tried to browse the
binary file WinAfsLoad.exe itself. And voila! The parameter appears to be
"-noid". Is it right?

However, I still have no success. Without filling in the username and
password I click connect and nothing happens. After a while it reports I
should check my network connection. The last message in log is:

(16:22:45-660)AFSD Creation done - wait for notification

The connection is ok. I also checked if there are some UDP packets comming
to the AFS server from the client address in the moment I'm connecting.
They were.

What may cause this problem?

Thank you.
