With these permissions you do not require tokens to write to the volume
so lack of tokens is not your problem.

The AFS service is not started as part of logon or shutdown as part of
logoff.   Your problem is elsewhere.

I would suggest that you start your debugging on the AFS file server
using a combination of audit log data and tcpdump.

=46rom Windows you want to use SysInternals' Process Monitor to log file
access from boot to a file and simply let it record all of the data for
an entire logon / logoff session.
