I didn't know about this one (and in fact, I thought when we had it set
up a cross-realm user on system:administrators worked for everything I
had tried, but that was a while ago and maybe my memory is faulty), but
one that I specifically remember is that you can't have a cross-realm
user on the Bos UserList.  Well, you can _put_ one on there, but it
won't work for anything.  When I tracked this one down, I found code to
specifically disallow foreign realm users in the code that handles the
Bos UserList; it would not surprise me to find similar code in the pts
server.
