Without tickets and tokens, as root :

libprot: a pioctl failed Could not get afs tokens, running unauthenticated.
Members of system:administrators (id: -204) are:
  zzzz

(The admin account).

omega:~# pts exam 2
libprot: a pioctl failed Could not get afs tokens, running unauthenticated.
Name: zzzz, id: 2, owner: system:administrators, creator: anonymous,
  membership: 1, flags: S----, group quota: unlimited.

It is 2 because I had initially created "admin" as the administrative user. In 
this realm A, cell B setup, that led to an impossible situation. So, I had to 
delete it, and create zzzz as the admin user.

I am using Debian, but am trying to get familiar with the setup. Further, if 
the manual attempt to create ACL's on /afs does not work, there is no reason 
to suppose that the script will work either (it probably invokes the same 
commands).
