Is this the RedHat module?

There's been some discussion (on the Linux-PAM list) about the need for
a module that can support AFS with krb5. I think the most desirable
approach would be to have a pam_afs which uses a [temporary] ccache
created by pam_krb5 to do its thing.

Well, it's hard to say anything about this without seeing the pam.conf.
