What's more,

if I obtain (as root for example) a ticket for user mamalos and kdestroy 
it, and then login as user root in a new terminal, the root user in the 
new terminal has still all privileges of mamalos in the share. Klist, of 
course, shows no tickets. This could be also a security threat, in case 
different kerberos principals (users in this setup) use a shared machine 
account to logon, and then access their resources by kiniting to their 
respective principals.

I assume that this must have to do with kernel's KGSSAPI support, which 
"forgets" to delete or renew its kerberos' cache.

Thank you all, again, for your time.
