+Value   : VerifyServiceSignature
+Type   : REG_DWORD
+Default : 0x1
+
+  This value can be used to disable the runtime verification of 
+  the digital signatures applied to afsd_service.exe and the 
+  OpenAFS DLLs it loads.  This test is performed to verify that 
+  the DLLs which are loaded by afsd_service.exe are from the 
+  same distribution as afsd_service.exe.  This is to prevent
+  random errors caused when DLLs from one distribution of AFS
+  are loaded by another one.  This is not a security test.  The
+  reason for disabling this test is to free up additional memory
+  which can be used for a large cache size.
+
+
+Value   : IoctlDebug
+Type   : REG_DWORD
+Default : 0x0
+
+  This value can be used to debug the cause of pioctl() failures.
+  Set a non-zero value and the pioctl() library will output status
+  information to stdout.  Executing command line tools such as
+  tokens.exe, fs.exe, etc can then be used to determine why the
+  pioctl() call is failing. 
+
+
+Value   : StoreAnsiFilenames
+Type    : REG_DWORD
+Default : 0x0
+
+  This value can be used to force the AFS Client Service to
+  store filenames using the Windows system's ANSI character set
+  instead of the OEM Code Page character set which has traditionally
+  been used by SMB file systems.  
+
+  Note: The use of ANSI characters will render access to files
+  with 8-bit OEM file names unaccessible from Windows.  This option
+  is of use primarily when you wish to allow file names produced
+  on Windows to be accessible from Latin-1 Unix systems and vice
+  versa.
