problem with ticket lifetime

[FM]

hello,
here is the getprinc USER :
Authenticating as principal root/admin at REALM with password.
Principal: USER at REALM
Expiration date: [never]
Last password change: Wed Dec 01 13:54:53 EST 2004
Password expiration date: Thu Mar 31 13:54:53 EST 2005
Maximum ticket life: 7 days 00:00:00
Maximum renewable life: 10 days 00:00:00
(...)
Policy: default_user

and now after the kinit
here is the klist :


Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_596_yE9M3i
Default principal: USER at REALM

Valid starting     Expires            Service principal
12/01/04 14:21:05  12/02/04 00:21:05  krbtgt/REALM at REALM
        renew until 12/01/04 14:21:05

Kerberos 4 ticket cache: /tmp/tkt596
klist: You have no tickets cached

I restarted the KDC and KADMIN daemon, is there something else ?

Thanks !
