Jeffrey and all,
I've just had a strange problem with the AFS 1.3.6400 client. In testing
some other networking software I needed to pull my network cable out
momentarily from my workstation. When I did this I lost access to my AFS
files and directories.
Here is a pic that shows my screen...

And here is the text from the command shell on the left in the pic...

Apparently "tokens" shows that I have a token, but performing a "dir" shows
that I have no access. The left command shell in the pic shows the steps
taken. I then started a "SYSTEM" console (on the top right) where I
stopped the AFS client service. When I did this I got the AFS service
application error dialog shown in the middle right. I then restarted the
service, klogged as myself, and got a new token, which fixed the problem.
So apparently pulling the network cable will cause the AFS service to
"forget" I have a token, even though one shows up when I type "tokens".
Anybody else see this problem? Jeffrey, what's up here?
Btw, I'm am using the loopback adapter.
Thanks,
Rodney
