That looks bad. You should see a token but there is nothing?

Not as much, unfortunately :)

Normally you do not see a Coda realm until you supply its name to "ls",
but clog is usually sufficient to make it appear.

Can you manage to get tokens with coda password instead?
I guess there is some other problem, possibly not Kerberos-related.

No. A Coda realm is definitely a totally different thing than a Cdoa volume.

Oh terrible thing, they call a Coda realm for "Coda cell" in this document.
Really confusing.

This page is clearly many years out of date. It is certainly misleading
for an inexperienced reader.
