Good day,

I got this issue where most of the kerberized stuff will not work if the
hostname in the HOSTS files is the non-FQDN version of the one in
Kerberos and DNS. I.E.:

[HOSTS file]
10.1.2.3        myserver

[DNS]
10.1.2.3        myserver.mydomain.com

[Kerberos]
host/myserver.mydomain.com


Is there no way to tell the GSSAPI to use DNS for it's naming
requirements?

I can't be certain that GSSAPI is the guilty component, but I noticed
that kerberized rcp and telnet won't refuse the connection in the previously
mentionned situation. I recall seeing in the Kerberos source that ftp is
actually named GSS-FTP (hence my accusing finger at GSSAPI).

Sorry if that's already been answered...

Mathieu
