You need to escape the periods for the "principal name parser" to work
properly.  You may need to quote it as \\. instead of \., but you
definitely need to use a krb4 name and appropriate quoting.

Remember when I said that you should use your own personal account
first.  I still stand by that assertion.  Get it working with
"henken@UPENN.EDU" and then work on other, more complicated
principals.
