ASU is using AFS for our student storage area. We are in the process of
deploying application access to students through Citrix with the default
storage space being their AFS space. This includes a redirection of
their My Documents and other configuration files to their personal AFS
space.

We are experiencing problems with the Windows AFS client either locking
up or going so slow it appears to be locked up that it requires a
restart of the AFS client service to bring it back on line, but it is
not consistent in working. We also have problems some people not even
being able to mount the AFS space.
=20
We have been using the Windows client on servers for many years to move
files around but not in the continued and high volume that we are in the
Citrix environment. =20

I am also looking for anyone that has a really good user interface to
AFS space through a web interface.

Thanks for your time.
