It does not appear to work. I tried adding a mount for .anl.gov using the
afs Client Driv Letter Add dialog. Is there some other way to specify the RW path?

I see in the registry:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Freelance]
"0"="anl.gov#anl.gov:root.cell.
"
"1"=".anl.gov#.anl.gov:root.cell.
"

If I change the last line to:
"1"=".anl.gov%anl.gov:root.cell.
"
(i.e. change "#." to "%")  restart, then I can access the RW path.
