I can't use just active directory, because student ID's for AFS are created off 
a separate LDAP system, as well as not using that system for authentication.

I need to be able to test a trust relationship off of one Kerberos system 
running on Solaris to a Windows domain.

At present, do not have a single sign on system. We are using OpeanAFS 1.6 As 
such, I have to learn to "coexist" by creating an intermediate test environment 
to explore the possibilities of using a trust relationship so students can use 
the 1.7 client and just sign on once.

I don't know why we have three authentication systems, but my job is not to ask 
why :-)

Do you have a link to documentation that could clarify this sort of OpenAFS 
Server configuration?

If the only thing you are using the Kerberos realm for is OpenAFS, why not just 
use Active Directory by itself?
