In this case, it's login. The actual situation is where krb5.conf is linked to an AFS area (/etc/krb5.conf -> /afs/.../krb5.conf), and the network is down, so AFS is unreachable. If the network is down, the intent is to fall back to local authentication. Maybe the code returned by the AFS client when it attempts to open the link is confusing it?
