Kerberos/Telnet question

I am trying to setup Kerberos on my Mandriva 2008.1 server. I think it is correctly configured but when I login with telnet, it seems to login fine, but then it immediately closes the connection and telnet is not usable.
telnet:
Trying 192.168.1.12...
Connected to server01.bluemapletech.com (192.168.1.12).
Escape character is '^]'.
Waiting for encryption to be negotiated...
[ Kerberos V5 accepts you as ``whobbie@BLUEMAPLETECH.COM'' ]
done.
Last login: Mon Sep 15 18:13:31 from server01

Why is this?  What is wrong?

Hi there,

At the risk of sounding officious, you should use should use ssh (secure
shell) instead of telnet, since telnet is insecure (even with Kerberos
authentication).

Well, I was going through this book "Kerberos: The Definitive Guide" in order to setup Kerberos and on P. 82 it has you test your configuration using a telnet client, so that it what I was trying to do, but it is not fully working as it should. I mean, it accepts my TGT but then closes the session, what is up with that?
