You're right, it's not that simple. :(

Unfortunately I'm not a programmer.

Would someone believe that I'm so stupid to put into UserList usernames in
a syntax of kerberos5 and NOT kerberos4? Thanks to Johan Danielson who
pointed me to this problem.

Yes, having [EMAIL PROTECTED] there was my problem and that was the
reason why my AFS authentication did not work (kerberos KDC worked and
issued tickes for me, also AFS tokens), but ptserver/fs and others said
always "Permission denied".

Would be nice if bosserver and ptserver would check that users specified
are entered in the [EMAIL PROTECTED] way. Probably syntax checking of
the whole UserList file during startup would be the best and when
inserting new users into the list. :)
