Via kinit?  Really?

Kerberos doesn't really have a good way t deal with multiple realms.
 Apple's modified Kerberos tries to work around this (so it *does* sort of
work from Ticket Viewer) but the standard Kerberos APIs don't provide ways
to specify the realm credentials to use.  This means (a) not much if any
support from login, and (b) programs like Samba and OpenAFS can only see
the currently selected credentials in Ticket Viewer, not all of them.

I will also note that this would only work "well" at login if you used the
same password in both realms, which is a very bad idea and possibly a
security violation.
