If this particular configuration doesn't work, then the pam_krb5 module 
you're using is buggy.  I would recommend the OpenPAM krb5 module based 
on Frank Cusack's work, but I wouldn't swear that it doesn't also have 
this bug at present -- the devel team talked about making sure the 
module worked without local accounts, but I don't know that it's ever 
been committed to CVS.

Kick me if you don't hear back from me on this in a day or so -- I'll 
take a look at what we have in the pam_krb5 CVS repository and fix it if 
it isn't already taken care of.
