When searching for a service principal, aklog will search for principals in 
this order
afs/your-cell-name.com@   referral request sent to the client principal's REALM
afs/your-cell-name.com@REALM
afs@REALM
If afs/your-cell-name.com@REALM does not exist, there will be a negative lookup 
and the cost of the extra round trips.  

"afs@REALM" should not be used for a new cell.  That name made sense when there 
was a one-to-one mapping between cell and realm due to the existence of 
"kaserver".  

The preference for afs/your-cell-name.com@REALM over afs@REALM has been present 
in OpenAFS since the MIT AFS-Kerberos 5 Migration Kit was merged in November 
2004.

OpenAFS 1.4.0 was the first release which integrated Kerberos v5 support.
