I had expected to be pulling out my hair trying to make our new Xyplex talk
to our V5B6 KDC.  Pleasant surprise.  While I don't remember verbatim the
exact sequence of keystrokes, it boiled down to typing something like "enable
kerberos V5" and then filling in the form pointing it to the server.  Voila!
It worked. When an incoming call is answered, the user is requested to
"Enter username>" (at which point he identifies himself as he is known to 
Kerberos) and then is prompted for his password.  If he gets it right, he's 
in.
