getting tokens for a remote cell

You're right. This was only my first (wrong) interpretation due to the
lack of deeper understanding...

But the point was: without the latest patch from Chris Wing, klog
won't get a token if "KRBTKFILE" is set to something that doesn't
exist (like it is after a call to "pagsh").

This is because "klog" sets the name for the ticketfile it uses with
"krb_set_tkt_string", and this is *not* honored inside "krb_afslog_uid"
as long as "KRBTKFILE" is set. But this is fixed by Chis Wing's latest
patch (by setting also "KRBTKFILE" when "krb_set_tkt_string" is called).

I'm wondering, why you can't reproduce this behaviour, though.


Thanks,
