 Windows has support for a concept known as Overlapped I/O. It is frequently used in Microsoft Office programs. The idea is that the program sends several file read, or write, requests at once and handles them in the order they are completed. This way, writes to different locations do not have to wait for previous writes to complete. It is mostly a performance enhancement.
 
-Unfortunately, [[OpenAFS]] for Windows currently does not handle theses overlapping requests very well. You are probably best off saving to local disk and then copying them into AFS.

 - Old server. Support for [[KerberosV]] tickets is a relatively new feature of [[OpenAFS]]. You will need an [[OpenAFS]] 1.2.8 or later server to use the feature. Either update the server, or disable [[KerberosV]]. Read about the latter in the [[Configuration Reference Guide|Main/WindowsConfigurationReferenceGuide#Disable_Automatic_Use_of_KerberosV]].

-AFS was originally intended to be run on stationary office computers. It required the AFS servers to be reachable at any time. Now, the laptop has made that an impossibility.

Since the user's default cell determines which cells will be visible to the user, a workaround was neccessary when laptops began moving around.
