The AFS-PAG Connection

All AFS privileges are associated with a PAG. This PAG may be a login shell, an Xdm startup process, or the system PAG.

If you authenticate within a PAG, the privileges you receive are only usable by other processes in that PAG. So, for example, if you log in and get a PAG and are authenticated in that PAG, your privileges will only work while you remain in that PAG. If you log in again and receive a different PAG, you will need to authenticate separately.
