Does the KDC log show anything?  Is it even saying that something is trying to
connect.  Since you haven't mentioned anything about the KDC messages, you may
not have your log daemon processing them.  If you aren't doing it and you
do not know how to do it, ftp the install notes from my site or just follow
the kerberos link from my home page.  This contains the stuff you need to do
for logging.

  These seem fine.

Maybe the "tweeking" you had to do to compile it on igi "broke" the
communication parts of the software.  Or maybe it doesn't work on an
IRIX system.  Does anyone else have this working on an IRIX system?
