You either need to use addressless ticket or embed the IP address of the
Linksys router into your tickets.  I use Kermit 95 to retrive my TGTs.
Here is a link to a kermit script that when executed will read the IP
address from the Linksys router and configure Kermit's Kerberos interface
to retrieve the appropriately addressed tickets.
