>Environment:
	
System: SunOS galt 5.5.1 Generic_103640-18 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-1
Architecture: sun4

>Description:
	When the kadmin program prompts for a password, it
	does not tell you which principal it is trying to use.
	This can be confusing, especially with the inconsistent ways
	"su" works on various UNIX flavors.

	Linit announces the principal name, why not kadmin?

>How-To-Repeat:
	Run kadmin, note that password prompt does not name a principal.
>Fix:
