I'm pleased to announce release 3.10 of kstart.
k4start, k5start, and krenew are modified versions of kinit which add
support for running as a daemon to maintain a ticket cache, running a
command with credentials from a keytab and maintaining a ticket cache
until that command completes, obtaining AFS tokens (via an external aklog)
after obtaining tickets, and creating an AFS PAG for a command. They are
primarily useful in conjunction with long-running jobs; for moving ticket
handling code out of servers, cron jobs, or daemons; and to obtain tickets
and AFS tokens with a single command.
Changes from previous release:
Fix compilation error with a new enough MIT Kerberos to support
krb5_get_error_message and with et/com_err.h instead of com_err.h
(such as Fedora Core 6). Thanks, Stefan Foerster.
Rework the configure script to use AS_IF instead of explicit if
statements, which allows Autoconf to do better dependency analysis.

Debian packages have been uploaded to Debian unstable.
Please let me know of any problems or feature requests.
