Hello,

the 
kinit -c /tmp/krb5ccmachine_EXAMPLE.COM
asks for password. Which password? What should I expect thereafter to happen?

I also asked AI to help me on the original issue. It thinks it is related to 
gssproxy and most probably it is right. It stated there is not nuch to do and I 
should accept the current state. But I feel a little bit unhappy, since it 
creates file with predictable name in the /tmp and it could be a security risk.

Thanks

Marek
