Any hints on how to connect to my home directory using this client? I tried downloading the software from your link, when I ran it, it claimed it was damaged. Rather than duplicate the steps, I went to the openafs.org site. Their latest clients don't show a Windows version in the table at the top, but it is listed at the bottom. It's claimed to be 18MB, but the file I got shows up as 12,482KB. It did install. http://openafs.org/release/latest.html I decided to use the cell name "msu.edu". I'm apparently connected to a path called \afs\msu.edu\valenti That shows up as a 2TB drive, about 50% full in Windows Explorere. But if I browse into it, nothing shows. Thanks for any suggestions. -John
