   I am running Kerberos Version 4, and I am trying to find
   a way to get an afs token from the kaserver in our
   afs cell.

   I have the aklog program, but I'm not sure how to set it
   up. Do I need a special principal in kerberos to authenticate
   to afs?

If what you want to do is use an MIT Kerberos V4 server to get AFS
tokens for your local machine, do this:

1. disable the kaserver completely (via bos)
2. create an afs.<cellname> Kerberos principal
3. extract an afs.<cellname> srvtab, and copy the key from that srvtab
to /usr/afs/etc/KeyFile (the program asetkey will do the copy for you,
or just use emacs; I'm not 100% of the path for KeyFile)
4. restart AFS

Then, as a user, do:

o kinit
o aklog
