Thanks, Ben.  Copying a regular krb5 keytab to
/usr/local/etc/openafs/server/rxkad.keytab worked and I was able to proceed
until trying to create a user.  I tried running

pts createuser -name test -id 1000 -localauth


 but it returns


> pts: server or network not responding; unable to create user test with id
> 1000


Nothing gets written to the log files in /var/openafs/log though.  How can
I find out what's causing the error?  I tried to learn what was going on
with truss and found that it was complaining that no
/usr/local/etc/openafs/server/KeyFile and
/usr/local/etc/openafs/server/UserList files existed, so I touched them,
but that didn't make a difference.  I shouldn't need the KeyFile at all if
/usr/local/etc/openafs/server/rxkad.keytab is present, correct?

buserver, vlserver, and ptserver seem to be running normally according to
bos status:

In case it is relevant, when I run the pts createuser command with -noauth
it immediately returns a "Permission denied" error.
