Jeffrey, Thanks for the answer, with this and the other answer I got, I think I'll not use openAFS.

The OpenAFS servers on the Windows platform may or may not work. The configuration wizard certainly does not. They can be configured by hand using the same instructions as for the UNIX servers. However, I wouldn't put production data onto such a server.
