Hi All,
    I have been trying to get AFS (probably the last 4 released =
versions, up to 1.2.8a), Windows 2000 server, and batch jobs (no one =
logged in interactively) which access AFS files  to run successfully =
with no luck.  AFS appears to periodically hose the Windows task =
scheduler (mstask.exe), maybe a couple of times a day.    Is anyone =
currently running this combination successfully?  If so, can you =
indicate which AFS version you are using and detail the steps taken to =
accomplish the successful running of AFS batch jobs?  Thanks for any =
replies!
