All you have to do is authorize that host:
 echo host/grumpy.magg.net@MAGG-NET > $(prefix)/lib/krb5kdc/kpropd.acl

(This is in the Cygnus V5 draft documentation; we use a somewhat
different form of documentation than MIT does though.) I hate to say
this, but it is a BETA -- you're expected to be able to read the code
and figure out what the messages mean :-) (or get professional help to
do it for you :-) :-)

That's probably just from the connection closing prematurely. Kprop
isn't a terribly clever protocol. Fix the acl, and this failure should
go away.
