There shouldn't be a change.  The acquisition of tokens is not
performed by KFW but afslogon.dll.   When KFW is not installed
or when it is disabled with the EnableKFW registry value,
afslogon.dll will use the Kerberos 4 routines built into AFS.

If KFW is installed and enabled, Kerberos 5 will be used to obtain
the tokens.

What does the debug logging show?
