The mounting part is fixed in current sources, but there has been no
release since 0.41. It's not hard to build from cvs, but there are a few
steps to set up the environment. Just ask, and I'll give you the steps. It
really would be nice to have friends in CERN who know how to do it.

Oh, and I think Finder notices /afs if you restart it or log in again.

As for the tokens, the pioctl interface changed in Tiger. I think you
should be ok if you use the tools in /usr/arla/bin, there's an afs aware
heimdal with kinit/klist/..., arla tools, plus the old mac GUI things
(the Afslog app etc). Unfortunately, the kalog in 0.41 is broken. Also
fixed in CVS, see

for a possible workaround.
