script question

[Kim Holburn]

I am trying to write a script to create users.  In some parts of the script I need to have a plain admin ticket and using the command:
  kinit xxxx -c /tmp/admin.cache
gets me one happily.

In another part of the script I need to set the user's password.  For this I need a kadmin ticket which I can get with this command:
kinit xxxx -c /tmp/kadmin.cache -S kadmin/admin
(or invoking kadmin)

I really don't want to force administrators to put in their passwords twice so how can I have both these tickets in a cache?  

I tried ksu but can't quite get it to do that - well maybe I could if it would honour the -C option but it doesn't.
