A good solution for this would be to provide a new RPC that can be sent
to any AFS service that requires authentication that would return a
list of local authentication domains:

 * Kerberos 4: KERBEROS.REALM

 * Kerberos 5: KERBEROS.REALM

 * Kerberos 5: ANOTHER.REALM

etc.

Then aklog could obtain the list of AFSDB records and query the servers
directly.

No, that would be a horrible solution. It's terribly insecure, and introduces Kerberos-specific behavior at a time when we're trying to move forward with a mechanism-independent security class. Really, Jeff, you should know better.
