Judi,

There is a known problem with the pam_krb5.so.1 module on Solaris 9 with
SEAM 1.2.

If in your syslog, you see the following, then this is the known bug. 
Sun has fixed the problem but I am not sure if they have released the
patch yet. 

	mmm dd hh:mm:ss ultra login: [ID 987226 auth.error]
pam_setcred()
	failed: Can not retrieve user credentials
