AutoFocus keep changing my manual focal depth settings... turning it off has no effect.

It resets the values to whatever AutoFocus wants on the following things (that i've noticed):
- Changing Camera Postion
- Changing Distortion

I've also tried stopping IPR and restarting.... never turns off.... happens on 2 different workstations too.

v 1.2

Hmmm, seems to work ok for me. Maya 2014, Octane for Maya v1.20 so long as you just type in the Focal Depth value but, and this may not be your problem, one thing to be careful of is if you use the render region to set your focus point this stays active throughout the session. I'd forgotten about that and had intended to let JimStar know ages ago but just stopped using it and forgot. It's a real pain, especially when animating the focal point. A workaround I found was to lock the Focal Depth attribute as soon as I had it where I wanted and that seemed to stop it changing.

JimStar please see above

Nope. Not using render region.

I'm using Maya 2013 though.

We're using Lock Attribute for now so it stops changing... thanks.
