issue with k5start

I am trying to add k5start to a custom vos routine to automate dump/restore.
My current solution is a traditional klist/kinit/aklog, but has a problem
with the
tokens timing out before a large (multi-day) job can complete.
I want to use a shared credential cache to reduce the traffic to the
kerberos
server (thousands and thousands of backup jobs with say one kinit/day).
When I use the -k ccache option it appears that each job simply overwrites
the cchache file. Without out it, each job appears to keep it's
own/private ccache
data. I suppose this makes sense since k5start needs to know when to renew
tickets/tokens based on when each job starts when run with the command
option.
Is there a way to use k5start to achieve what I am after
- shared ccache for many jobs to keep kerberos server traffic down
- allow long running jobs to continue beyond their initial aklog
renewal date
If I ran k5start as a daemon and managed periodic aklog's within my
application,
would that work?
