I suspect you are talking about at least two distinct problems.
For the wildcard expansion problem, the shell variable "noglob" might
have been set, which I believe disables wildcard expansion. If it
happens again, try "unset noglob" to clear up the problem. Did you
get any errors in a tset command, perhaps in your .login? That's
where "noglob" is usually frobbed.
You might be able to recreate the pwd error by using nfsid to *remove*
your own mapping to your file server, if you have directories not
readable by everyone.
Kerberos tickets would probably be an unrelated matter. Can you
supply more information as to what happened on this side? You say
only that you lost your tickets. Were you doing anything in /tmp?
(You might have accidentally deleted or moved the ticket file.) Did
you log out while keeping an xterm popped up elsewhere? (The act of
logging out could have deleted your tickets.) Could your workstation
have deactivated at some point? (It shouldn't have while you were
logged in, but....) Were you using the test Kerberos software or the
installed 6.0a stuff?
