I agree that in a rewrite of our manuals, we really should talk about
kinit. I think we can mention both methods of obtaining tokens (kinit and
aklog or klog) somewhere, and then refer back to that section. klog does
still work with a Kerberos v5 infrastructure, but given the single DES
limitation, I'm not sure we want to advertise it too much.

I think you're right on the recommendation.

They're obsolete and probably should be only mentioned in an appendix.
