Your PAM module seems to be probing for a default realm by trying various
manipulations of your local hostname.  Usually this would indicate that
your krb5.conf isn't setting a local realm.

Does the stock pam_krb5.so on Solaris look for krb5.conf in some different
path than the one that you updated, perhaps?

These are interesting.  I've not heard of afsx before.  What aklog are you
using?
