Hi,
You wrote to bugs:

This should be fixed now. There were actually two issues:
1. the overloading of kinit etc. on Suns.
2. a mistake I made in creating local kinit etc. launch scripts for Suns,
where apparently the Kerberos utilities in the JDK are only in the Linux
version at the moment, not the Sun one.
So- I removed the scripts for Sun, and renamed the Linux ones with a
"java." prefix, i.e. java.kinit etc.
Thanks for pointing this out.
