For 2K and XP you can setup your machine for direct kerberos logins
(there's a whitepaper on MS's site about it).  Then put 'wake' in the
startup group to convert your MS krb5 TGT into an MIT one and do an aklog
automatically.  For NT4, there's no nice shortcuts.

Is the aklog.exe in the same directory as kinit.exe and friends?  It needs
to be able to find krb5.ini.  I remember the UNIX aklog used to segfault
if it couldn't find krb5.conf.
