See, I would expect that, but all I get is this for multiple 
login attempts:

Dec 07 13:12:45 kerberos-1 krb5kdc[1163](info): AS_REQ (7 etypes {3 1 2 16 8 23 
0}) 10.1.16.253: NEEDED_PREAUTH: ptadmin
@IC.COM for krbtgt/[EMAIL PROTECTED], Additional pre-authentication required
Dec 07 13:13:16 kerberos-1 krb5kdc[1163](info): AS_REQ (7 etypes {3 1 2 16 8 23 
0}) 10.1.16.253: NEEDED_PREAUTH: ptadmin

Dec 07 13:14:03 kerberos-1 krb5kdc[1163](info): AS_REQ (7 etypes {3 1 2 16 8 23 
0}) 10.1.16.253: NEEDED_PREAUTH: ptadmin

Dec 07 13:15:06 kerberos-1 krb5kdc[1163](info): AS_REQ (7 etypes {3 1 2 16 8 23 
0}) 10.1.16.253: NEEDED_PREAUTH: ptadmin
@IC.COM for krbtgt/[EMAIL PROTECTED], Additional pre-authentication required

And this is the same message I get with a successful kinit from
elsewhere in the system:

Dec 07 11:43:34 kerberos-1 krb5kdc[1163](info): AS_REQ (7 etypes {18 17 16 23 1 
3 2}) 10.1.16.234: NEEDED_PREAUTH: ptadm
[EMAIL PROTECTED] for krbtgt/[EMAIL PROTECTED], Additional pre-authentication 
required
Dec 07 11:43:36 kerberos-1 krb5kdc[1163](info): AS_REQ (7 etypes {18 17 16 23 1 
3 2}) 10.1.16.234: ISSUE: authtime 11024
48616, etypes {rep=16 tkt=16 ses=16}, [EMAIL PROTECTED] for krbtgt/[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]

Thanks for the suggestion, though. I looked at some other log files but
I don't think the KDC is writing anywhere else; these lines are coming
from /var/krb5/kdc.log, as specified in /etc/krb5.conf.

-r.
