Sorry but I used the Add/Remove Programs Control Panel. I will retry it
to confirm this. Windosws XP machines don't have this option anyway but
you can rdp to them.

They are four separate XP machines each with leash 2.6.4 installed and I
am logging into the console not RDP. I was saying that only one out of
four machines is working. Since I said that the fourth machine is not
working now. It seems something is destroying the krb5 ticket in the
cache. If I reauthenticate with afscreds leash finds the new ticket.

does afscreds or leash renew tickets and tokens?
