I haven't tested it - I see a few modifications in its changelog to work
with Mac OS, but I haven't yet worked through how to get it to interact
properly with Mac OS's launchd so that it can be started properly at
login time.
(Or does anyone have a plist known to work well when installed within
{~,}/Library/LaunchAgents on 10.5 and 10.6?)
Even if krenew is the best way to accomplish this task, it would still
be a great help to have a tested, packaged configuration of it
integrated with the OpenAFS installer (which already does
Kerberos-specific OS manipulation in the form of /etc/authorization "Get
Krb5 credential at login").
