[OpenAFS-win32-devel] Building openafs-1.5.24 on WinXP SP2

[Luigi Alfano]

Thank you Jeffrey for your answer, I solved the problem compiling it with
visual studio 2003.
Now I have another question for you. 
When I launch "nmake /f NMTakeinstall wix" I have a problem with the
property.wxi file.

c:\Programmi\openafs-1.5.24-src\openafs-1.5.24\src\WINNT\install\wix\property.wxi(52)
: fatal error CNDL0027: L'attributo "Type" ha un valore non per il tipo di
dati. (The "Type attribute ha a value not for the data type)
