rlogin doesn't use PAM except on Red Hat, where Red Hat has locally
patched login.krb5 to use the PAM session stack.  It's on my list to take
Red Hat's patch and figure out what needs to be done to get it
incorporated into MIT Kerberos, but I haven't had a chance yet.

In the meantime, you have to patch login.krb5 to create a PAG and run
aklog in order to get good AFS behavior.  You can run aklog from shell
initialization scripts, but setting up a PAG is harder (although on
Solaris aklog -setpag may work -- it doesn't on Linux, though).
