No. It's the kpasswd binary only for talking to a kaserver.

The install script probably suggests you use a kerberos 5 server, and asks
if you meet the prerequisites (the "server" install script). If you do
use kerberos 5, that also has an install script which will set up a realm
for you. If you do this, the openafs scripts should then set up the rest
of a server for you.

I can't comment on why the pam modules aren't packaged but if you install
a kerberos 5 server, you'd be using other modules anyway.
