Asuming you make "REMOTE.REALM" the kerberos realm for your cell, and
obtain a key, afs/your.cell@REMOTE.REALM...  For a user with a
kerberos principal of username@REMOTE.REALM you would give them a pts
name of "username" and you can assign them an id of whatever you want.

e.g.:

klist
...
Default principal: warlord@ATHENA.MIT.EDU
...
07/26/03 00:39:12  07/26/03 10:39:12  afs.athena.mit.edu@ATHENA.MIT.EDU
07/26/03 00:39:12  07/26/03 10:39:12  afs.sipb.mit.edu@ATHENA.MIT.EDU
...
