2011-11-22 Thread Richard Carde
Simon's recent issue with Kerberos reminded me of an issue I faced recently where Kerberos was failing. This is possibly a question to Ken, but anyone else might want to chip in. I do often refer people to Ken's multi-part blog on Kerberos. It must have been written when Ken had some spare
