Folks.  I have uploaded binaries which are labeled as version 1.3.7390 
(20041108) to the daily build location.  These are release candidate one 
of 1.3.74.  Please bang on them very hard.

Here is a list of changes since 1.3.73:

   * Fix the locking of objects during Directory Searches in the
     SMB/CIFS server.  The failure to properly lock the reference
     counts was resulting in the premature freeing of smb_dirSearch_t
     objects while they were still in use by the SMB/CIFS client.
     This does not solve the "Invalid Handle" problem.

   * Fix Find Cell By Name pioctl call to return a valid cell
     name for the Freelance fake root.afs volume.
     "Freelance.Local.Root".

   * Fix the Explorer Shell Extension Symlinks->Add operation.
     The dialog template was missing and the link destination
     string was too short.

   * Add support for symlinks to Freelance root.afs volume
     Stored at HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\Freelance\Symlinks
        <number>  =  "<linkname>:<relative-path>."
     Use symlink.exe to create, list, or remove

   * Remove the fallback to the use of KFW's KRB4 library when obtaining
     tokens.  We never obtain KRB4 tickets.

   * Fix AFS Client Configuration Control Panel to support new SysName
     protocol.

   * Fix a bug in afsd_service.exe which could result in the SysName
     not being read from the registry.

Thanks.
