That is a more "correct" solution. But would that value be used for "modern" Kerberos5 api? Probably should be, as it still is kerberos, and 5 :-) (so I presume only the programming API/ABI changed, but not the "protocol"), and would replace code that apparently has only compiled by "2 or 3 peoples" in the past 15 years. > (Though should someone really want to do this, our security people have > suggested a new GSS-API authentication method might be a better idea > than a Kerberos5 specific one, but that's up to whoever is doing the > work.)
