That is because krlogin does not look for the kerberos user of "klogin",
but instead it looks for the the kerberos principal of "host". This
feature can be discovered by consulting the ultimate documentation of
behaviour - the code! ;-). In fact it is somewhat sensible, as
a number of the rtools can share the same key for the daemon.
This is also documented in some of the useful web pages that people
have posted to this place.
