	It means that you didn't type a password into login.krb; basically, login.krb serves two purposes.  First, it can accept a password and automagically get you tickets as well as logging you into the local system.  Also, it can be the login program for rlogind.  Basically, in its second role, it warns you that you don't have yet have tickets on the system you just logged in to.
