I think to start AFS session in RunAS session. So I don't need
to obtain an AFS token before the RunAS session.

I plan to store the username and passwords (for RunAs and for
Kerberos) in a database server. The logged user can access them
using an application. But now, I understand that this is also a
"Security through obscurity" case.
Any suggestions?
