My question is why? Why are there two ftp clients provided in a
single distribution and why is the kerberos version effectively made
the default whereas one might reasonably assume that anything in
/usr/bin/ is the standard ( and by inference default ) ftp client
for the distribution? If kerberos ftp is intended to be the default
ftp client then why is it not in, or at least linked to from,
/usr/bin?
If you look in /etc/profile.d/ you'll see the krb5-workstation.sh script. It tests the path to see if kerberos is in it, and if not, it prepends the path. This is why it is the first ftp used/found.
As to why, dunno. Ask rh.
