Are you sure you need the krb5.keytab on the Windows side? Sounds like the XP system is the client only. Unless you are trying to use a keytab with kinit, a keytab is normally only needed on the server side. Can you describe what OSes are running on the servers and the clients? Are you trying to run some non-interactive client? > Thanks for any hints & kind regards, > > Holger > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > ________________________________________________ > Kerberos mailing list [email protected] > https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos -- Douglas E.
