** what's wrong?

there seems to be a problem with the kerberos configuration under 8.2.7,
affecting kadmin.  (tried on an o2 and sparc 5.)

just typing kadmin fails:

    mufasa> kadmin
    Enter password:
    kadmin: Communication failure with server while initializing kadmin interface

specifying the admin server makes it work:

    mufasa> kadmin -s kerberos
    Enter password:
    kadmin:  

** what should have happened

it should have been able to figure out the admin server automatically.
