We decided to make KfW part of the afs install about a year ago. There are
many advantages to it.
I'm not sure what the 'notification area' is but it would be nice to have
some quick / visual way to make sure you have afs tokens.
The only other thing I miss from afscreds is the version number for afs. I
don't see where this is easily available -- elsewhere, not even in the
control panel applet.
as far as mapping drives... we don't need no stinking mapped drives --
educate the world on using UNC's!
