[OpenAFS] Drive mapping difficulties in Windows

Thanks, but I'm not sure what this entails. Is there some other way of 
controlling the AFS drive mappings than using the configuration interface 
("control center")? (Not using integrated login)

Is there perhaps a way to do this using a script? I'm thinking something like:

   NET USE N: MACHINE-AFS\submountName /persistent:no

Perhaps that exact solution works; I will try it tomorrow when I have another 
go at this thing.
