you shouldn't need the sysname if everything is OK... ;-)

Now check if there is a passage in your rxkad.h that looks like:


#if defined(AFS_AIX52_ENV)
#ifdef __XCOFF64__
#define MAXKTCTICKETLEN       12000     /* was 344 */
#else
#define MAXKTCTICKETLEN         344
#endif
#else
#define MAXKTCTICKETLEN       12000     /* was 344 */
#endif

it's pretty much at the beginning

BTW, this is a 32 bit Kernel on a AIX 5.2 machine?? Right??
