Reading the docs implied that all hostnames were converted to lowercase before being used by kerberos, no matter how DNS was configured. I'm not sure why mixed case was selected at this site, but I've seen it before many places. Since DNS is case insensitive, and case preserving, (Similiar to NTFS/CIFS) it's never broken things for me before. So you think it's the kernel's idea of the hostname that matters, not DNS's? That's the easiest to change. I'll give it a try. Thanks. -Kyle
