Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-security@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hello, sorry if this is the wrong place for this question, but has anybody seen any Y2k problems with kerberos (eBones) ? Yesterday I tried to create a new kerberos database. All went smoothly the way it`s documented in the handbook. Except for one thing: $ kinit sven eBones International (algieba.leonis.supercluster.net) Kerberos Initialization for "sven" Password: kinit: Principal expired (kerberos) The database was created setting all expiry dates to 2001-01-01 instead of the default 2000-01-01. Once the system clock is switched back to 1999 kinit is able to obtain a valid ticket. Any comments? Sven --snip-- fortune of the day: Justice, n.: A decision in your favor.
