Um, I think you're using the wrong command (unless that pts is being
run where ThisCell == foreign cell).

In order to setup cross-realm:
        1) you need cross-realm Kerberos (a shared key)
        2) The foreign cell needs to setup a group to hold users
           from your.original.cell:
                pts cg system:authuser@your.original.cell -c foreign.cell

Then, once that is setup, users can create themselves ids in
the foreign cell:

        3) user needs to obtain a token in the foreign cell:
                aklog -cell foreign.cell
        4) user creates themselves an id in the foreign cell:
                pts cu user@your.original.cell -c foreign.cell
        5) user gets new tokens with proper ID
                aklog -cell foreign.cell -force
