These registry keys are not used by the Network Provider.  Someone can
submit a patch to change that but at present those keys are only used
for the OpenAFS Network Identity Manager credential provider.

The realm for the AFS cell will be determined by the standard
algorithmic method of looking up the server names for the vldb servers
either from CellServDB or via DNS and then performing a domain to realm
translation either locally using the krb5.conf [domain_realm] rules or
using Kerberos referrals if the KDC supports that.
