I have uploaded new test builds dated 20040402 to

    /afs/athena.mit.edu/user/j/a/jaltman/Public/OpenAFS/
    http://web.mit.edu/~jaltman/Public/OpenAFS/

The major changes since 1.3.62 are the following:

    * All of the resource files have been restructured to adhere to
      a set of rules IBM implemented for loading string resources.
      These rules had either been forgotten or were not discovered
      by folks working on the OpenAFS sources.  The end result was
      memory corruption.  This is primary item which was preventing
      the AFS Server from working.
    * Increased the size of the maximum ticket size stored in a token
      from 344 bytes to 4096.  Increased the buffers used to convey
      messages between the pioctl() caller and the SMB Server from
      1000 bytes to 8196.  The code appeared to have been writing
      above the top of the stack by quite a few number of bytes.
      (please let me know if this solves the afsd_service.exe crashing
      when the service is shutdown.)  The increased ticket size is
      necessary for the next item.
    * When obtaining AFS Tokens via KFW, krb524 is no longer required.
      Instead the raw Kerberos 5 ticket is used in its entirety.  This
      is extremely important as it allows us to use pure Kerberos 5 KDCs
      as the source of the AFS authentication.  The use of 4096 byte long
      tickets will allow tickets produced by all versions of Microsoft
      Active Directory to be used. 

        create a user account. 
        designate it DES only
        disable pre-auth
        specify its UPN to be  "afs@realm"
        assign a SPN of "afs/cellname" to the UPN with setspn.exe

    *

Do not enforce the funky 8dot3 pattern matching rule that the first "."
is special when using long file names.  (you must use "*.*" and not "*")
Instead only enforce it when performing 8dot3 searches.

Note:  The following items are known to be horribly broken in this build:

    * The AFS Shell Extensions menu is entirely non-functional
    * The installer launches the AFS Server Configuration tool on an upgrade
      in a mode which forces server configuration as opposed to management.
    * Every other reported bug in the OpenAFS Request Tracker

When installing the AFS Server note the following things:

    * if you are installing the AFS Server on a machine which has the
      loopback
      adapter installed, you must add an entry into the
        %WINDIR%\System32\Drivers\Etc\Hosts
      file for the IP Address you chose to use
    * you must have an empty NTFS partition available before you start the
      installation process
    * do not turn on Freelance mode when installing the AFS Server
    * The "afs" password you enter on the first screen must match the
      password
      you specify in the Active Directory or the KDC.  This password will be
      entered into the local kaserver database for you in case you are not
      using KFW.
    * Performance sucks when the client and the server are both on the same
      machine and you are writing to a read-write volume

Enjoy!!!!
