I am using RedHat 7.2 for AFS server and UNIX client (Win2k for the windows
client) with "Active Directory" on win2k domain server as my K5 server
(using a patched  version of MIT's krb524d running on my AFS server to
convert the tickets)

I can do kinit/aklog from command line without a problem.
I can get a K5 ticket at login (PAM) time, however I cannot get aklog to run
from PAM (thus cannot place the home dirs into AFS space as I want). I tried
several pam plugins, but for some reason none have worked.

I suspect the problem is that the modded krb524d deamon (running on a UNIX
machine) uses afs/cell@REALM ticket instead of krbtgt/cell@REALM to do the
conversion (I know this cause some issues with the windows client) Though I
am not an expert on the subject, I am suspecting this is what the standard
krb524lib using pam modules try (but then again, why does the aklog
executable work??)
