ok.  "Network user" in Windows has a different meaning. 
You can have as many tokens obtained by as many Kerberos principals as 
you would like.
They have nothing at all to do with the local Windows CIFS client 
authenticating to
the AFS Client Service SMB/CIFS Server.

I will try to do some more testing on 2000.  I don't have a Swedish 
version installed though.

Can you send me the %WINDIR%\TEMP\afsd_init.log file?

I disagree.  Submounts are shortcuts which allow you to go deep into an 
afs tree
and allow things to be referenced as
      
    \\AFS\submount

They are really useful.  Its just that the way they are managed is so 
unintuitive because
half the places where it should say "Submount name" in the UI it instead 
uses terms
such as "Description" or "Comment".
