We had some success with an "aklog.service" as described in
https://www.mail-archive.com/openafs-info@openafs.org/msg40604.html
The main problem that we face at the moment is that there are TWO
sessions opened, and (especially in "Ubuntu"-Session) depending on which
program is started, it lives in the one or the other. Most notable
"xterm" and "gnome-terminal" have to different sessions - which in the
end means that an "aklog" needs to be performed in both... The above
mentioned script tries to help with that, but it's not quite perfect yet.
