The error is produced when the pioctl() call to the AFS Client Service
fails.  There are many reasons this can be.  I added a new registry
value a while back to assist in debugging the actual cause of the
problem.

  Key:   HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client
  Value: IoctlDebug
  Type:  REG_DWORD
  Data:  0x01

After setting this registry value, open a command prompt window and
execute the command "tokens.exe".  You should get some debug output
from the pioctl() function.

At this point the only known cause of the problem is when the machine
has been configured to use Offline Folders and Windows thinks the
AFS Client Service's SMB/CIFS server is "offline".  In this case the
pioctl() calls will fail since they are dependent upon the ability
to use SMB/CIFS to communicate with the AFS Client Service.

So far everyone I have given the above advice has failed to reply
therefore I assume I am correct and they have solved the problem.
Unfortunately, they have never reported what they did to solve the
problem.
