Greetings,

I am running OpenAFS 1.3.8500 (win32) in my environment, and have had
great success with the integrated logon feature mounting a user's AFS
space in a logon script.  What doesn't appear to be straightforward is
how to programmatically mount another AFS path *after* logon.  It's easy
enough to create the registry entry under
HKCU\Software\OpenAFS\Client\Mappings, but no afscreds command line args
seem to actually mount the newly created path.  The -Z argument works
like a charm for unmounting, however.

Is there a simple way to do this that I'm just overlooking? =20

Thanks,

Jeremy
