I've been using the following approach without seeing any error:

In `crontab -e`:

0 */5 * * * ~/bin/interchange -r


And in actual ~/bin/interchange:

#!/usr/bin/pagsh.openafs

# Only adjust the following 3 lines
K5PID=/afs/hcoop.net/user/d/do/docelic/pidfiles/k49ic.pid
KTAB=/etc/keytabs/user.daemon/docelic
CMD="/afs/hcoop.net/user/d/do/docelic/interchange/bin/interchange $*"

# Terminate current k5start process, if one is running.
test -e "$K5PID" && kill `cat -- "$K5PID"`

# Start fresh k5start daemon which will be refreshing tickets every 540
min /usr/bin/k5start -U -b -K 540 -t -p "$K5PID" -f "$KTAB"

# Run actual service with arguments as provided on command line
$CMD
