We've got a weird problem here... We're (still) testing OpenAFS for Windows 1.3.7x (73 and 76). Our production machines are still running 1.2.10 (and we'd like to upgrade them soon!)
Our users have roaming profiles and we're redirecting Desktop, My Documents, and Application Data into AFS via a mapped drive (U:\windows\username\...). The U: drive is mapped with a windows startup script (other scripts map other drives at startup and logon). Everything, ie the folder redirection, _appears_ to work, but this is where the weirdness comes into play: right-clicking on the Desktop and selecting "New Folder" or "New" anything, fails silently. But, Desktop is definitely being redirected. Navigating to U:\windows\username\Desktop, and creating a new folder there works: it appears in the explorer window AND on the desktop. This may be a Microsoft issue (and it's tempting to assume so), but it seems suspiciously AFS-related. Has anyone else seen anything like this or have any hints, suggestions, voodoo-chants, or helpful advice? PS. Our servers are running OpenAFS 1.2.10. We've seen this problem with multiple test users, and on multiple machines running WinXP SP1 and SP2.
