It seems that your synctree script is using 
/afs/net/tools/@sys/krbtgp, which expects to find the srvtab in
/etc/srvtab.  On ronald-ann, there was no symlink from /etc/srvtab to
/etc/athena/srvtab.  I have created one, and am running the sync
manually now.

Also, your script tries to run the "logger" program, which is not
available on ultrix.  If someone has a version of the BSD Net 2 logger
compiled, we could install it, but it's not that important.

I am curious as to why you are using krbtgp rather than ksrvtgt.  Please
explain.  The two programs are nearly identical in function, and ksrvtgt
is on the system packs, rather than in the net cell, so I trust it more.
(Especially since it doesn't have this srvtab path bug.)

I have not modified the script, because it is not strictly necessary.
The symlink provides the minimal solution.
