Absolutely not.   AFS Client Admin rights are never used for token
management.  They are only used to restrict access to commands that
affect the configuration of the AFS Client Service for all users of the
machine OR that would grant the user access to information that should
only be accessible to administrators (ie, trace log or mini dump
generation).

If you have a user that cannot obtain tokens as part of integrated
login, you should turn on trace logging for the integrated login process
and file a bug report to [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you cannot figure
out why things are failing.
