[OpenAFS] pioctl fails when AFS user != UNIX user

I am able to use 'klog' as long as the user I'm authenticating as is
identical to the UNIX user I'm logged in as. If they're different I
get a long delay and then "Unable to authenticate to AFS because a
pioctl failed.":
afs0# klog debertin.admin
Password: <...>
Unable to authenticate to AFS because a pioctl failed.
If I create a UNIX user named 'debertin.admin' (despite the fact that
it breaks UNIX conventions regarding username length), su to it, and
issue the same klog command it works fine.
Does it have to be this way?
Thanks in advance --
