You can run "rxdebug <addr> 7001 -ver" to get the version string
from the client.   However, that will only tell you the cache manager
version. It won't tell you if pam, afslog, or other tools that can
acquire tokens are capable of rxkad-kdf.   Nor does it tell you if the
client krb5.conf configuration will permit the use of non-DES keys.

The rxkad-kdf change does not get rid of 1DES.  It simply permits the
afs cell key to be a non-1DES key.  All wire encryption and the actual
rxkad challenge/response is still performed using 1DES.
