-(13) Loopback adapter is not always installed without bindings to "File and
- Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks" and with bindings to "Client for Microsoft
- Networks". If these are not bound correct then SMB names will successfully
- be published to a list of zero which causes the AFS not to function.
- We need a way to test whether the Loopback adapter is properly bound
- so we know if it is safe to use. Actually, it is worse. Even with
- the bindings on Win2000 the loopback adapter frequently fails to publish
- SMB names. Of course, the error messages report nothing.

or Delete the Mapping. If a map to "H:" to \afs\cell\foo" with
description "home" is modified to point to \afs\cell\bar, then the
description must be unique. "home" cannot be reused. We need a way

+(14) No support for Unicode CIFS/SMB data structures. OEM Code Pages prevent
the use of interoperable file names; force the use of paths no longer
than 256 characters; force share names to be no longer than 13
characters; restrict authentication to ASCII only names and passwords;
etc.

+(23) Remove submount creation as a side effect of AFS drive mapping.
The AFS Submount is effectively a server side alias for a path
located in the AFS space. This alias is exported by the AFS
or by the new AFS Client Service Administration tool when executed
by an authorized user.

List of unfunded projects:
11. Large File support (> 2GB) in SMB/CIFS client
12. Integrate KFW installation into the NSIS and MSI installers
13. Add support for byte range locking to AFS (requires changes to the servers)
- 13a. Simulate support for byte range locking at the client; use full locks
- on the server.
14. Unicode enable the SMB/CIFS server. OEM Code Pages:
1. prevent the use of interoperable file names
2. force the use of paths no longer than 256 characters
