I was told that I can see my WAM files on AFS from my home machine. My computer on campus runs OpenBSD (sometimes) and already has Arla and Heimdal. I put "wam.umd.edu" in /etc/afs/ThisCell and I was easily successful in running afsd, mounting /afs, and seeing my public files in /afs/wam.umd.edu/home/wam/g/k/gkoehler/pub

Now I want the ticket and permission for my private files but I cannot get it. The heimdal info pages say I only need afslog, so I try it:

$ afslog
afslog: krb5_afslog(<default cell>): No such file or directory
$ afslog wam.umd.edu
afslog: krb5_afslog(wam.umd.edu): No such file or directory
$ afslog /afs/wam.umd.edu/home/wam/g/k/gkoehler/home
afslog: krb5_afslog(wam.umd.edu): No such file or directory
$ afslog does.not.exist
afslog: krb5_afslog(does.not.exist): No such file or directory

afslog never says which file or directory that it lost. I learn eventually that there is kinit. If I do "kinit [EMAIL PROTECTED]" from my glue account, it works, and I can see my wam files from glue, but if I do it from my own computer:

$ kinit [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s Password:
kinit: krb5_get_init_creds: unable to reach any KDC in realm WAM.UMD.EDU
$ kinit [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s Password:
kinit: krb5_get_init_creds: unable to reach any KDC in realm DOES.NOT.EXIST

It seems that I have no idea where is Kerberos realm WAM.UMD.EDU and I get the same error whether I typed a correct password. Do I need to make a /etc/kerberosV/krb5.conf file? Is it possible to obtain the ticket and see my files?
