Thanks.  I don't have Heimdahl (still using MIT) and I
have an old /bin/sh, But I was able to modify your script
as follows:

#!/bin/sh
KRB5CCNAME=FILE:/tmp/aksu.$USER
export KRB5CCNAME
if klist -s ; then
    echo "(Reusing token)"
else
    kinit -l 300 $USER/admin
fi
pagsh -c "aklog; $*"

Here's a sample session:
pabst.cs 270 % ./admindo vos release pkg.twelf
Password for boyland/ad...@cs.uwm.edu:
Released volume pkg.twelf successfully
pabst.cs 271 % vos release pkg.twelf
Could not lock the VLDB entry for the volume 536874088.
VLDB: no permission access for call
Error in vos release command.
VLDB: no permission access for call
pabst.cs 272 % ./admindo vos release pkg.twelf
(Reusing token)
Released volume pkg.twelf successfully
pabst.cs 273 %

And yes, the token times out after five minutes.

Thanks everyone,

John
