Here is my example:

	spam% kdestroy
	spam% kinit
[1]	Password for mdw at UMICH.EDU: 
	spam% kdestroy
[2]	spam% /usr/sbin/kadmin -p admin at DOGS.UMICH.EDU
	Authenticating as principal admin at DOGS.UMICH.EDU with password.
	Password for admin at DOGS.UMICH.EDU: 
[3]	kadmin: GSS-API (or Kerberos) error while initializing kadmin interface
	spam% 
[4]	spam% /usr/sbin/kadmin -p admin at DOGS.UMICH.EDU -r DOGS.UMICH.EDU
	Authenticating as principal admin at DOGS.UMICH.EDU with password.
	Password for admin at DOGS.UMICH.EDU: 
[5]	kadmin:  

[1] my default realm is UMICH.EDU
[2] same usage as yours
[3] same error as yours
[4] different usage.  realm matters.
[5] success
