Hi,
Your mail shows that you had krb4 tix, but not krb5 tix. The print
system is one of the few parts of athena that depends on k5 for some
things. I took the liberty of looking through your .cshrc.mine since
it was world-readable, and I hoticed a couple of aliases that you
appear to use for logging into machines with your root tickets. These
aliases reset $KRBTKFILE, but not $KRB5CCNAME. $KRB5CCNAME specifies
the location of your krb 5 tickets. Since you don't reset
$KRB5CCNAME, the kinit replaces your alexp krb 5 tix with alexp/root
krb5 tix and the kdestroy at the end of the alias then destroys them.
