There is a hole for 7001/UDP and the firewall wasn't turned on, atleast 
not on his work computer. He'll check is home computer tonight.

One really strange thing is that "Date modified" on his work computer is 
correct and corresponding to the last change made on the file from his 
home computer last night. When we copy the file to c:\ the "date modified" 
is for the last change on his work computer, i.e. an older version. The 
afs client is aware of the date of the last change, but still uses the old 
version from the cache.

Right clicking on the folder doing a "Flush File/Dir" solves the problem 
for the day. But it comes back later.
