I don't see how that would work. How would I store Kerberos credentials
inside of a PAG? (Given my client base I can't assume AFS is available).
I had not known about task IDs ... but I am not sure that helps me. It's
not that I need a per-session identifier ... I need a per-login session IPC
mechanism or a per-login session storage mechanism. E.g., if Solaris
doors could be restricted to only processes within a certain task, that
would work.

"The devil you know", and all that. We used them already, and they have
the right inheritance properties.
