The 'kauth' that most people are probably using is that included in KTH
Kerberos, which you can download at:

ftp://ftp.pdc.kth.se/pub/krb/src/krb4-0.9.9.tar.gz

I wrote a simple perl wrapper for kauth last year that tries to emulate
klog from the official AFS:

http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/~wingc/kthkrb/klog
http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/~wingc/kthkrb/klog.1

but to make it work as intended you also need this patch to the KTH source
to add a few options to kauth:

http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/~wingc/kthkrb/kauth.patch
http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/~wingc/kthkrb/kauth-man.patch


Here's my version of 'tokens' I wrote before one appeared in Arla:

http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/~wingc/kthkrb/tokens
http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/~wingc/kthkrb/tokens.1

You'll want this patch to the KTH source too, as otherwise you can't list
the tokens you have if you don't also have a Kerberos ticket:
