Sites using Kerberos and AFS need special care to preserve the user's Kerberos tickets and AFS tokens. Typically these are destroyed when SSH logs out -- which is a problem for us, since SSH logs out immediately before we even start the Mosh session proper.

One approach is to write a mosh-kerberos-server script that manually copies the Kerberos ticket file (and AFS tokens?) to a new location before detaching from the terminal and letting SSH reap the old ones.
