Hi Greg,

you are right - this seems to be the reason for the failing. Thank you 
very much for pointing me to this! I cannot explain why it did not hit 
me before the change to LDAP BE ... at least it works now. Thank you 
very much for that!

I also got an answer by Mark Pröhl, the author of the mentioned book, 
aside from this list. He pointed me to the Errata of his book, located 
at http://www.kerberos-buch.de/errata.html . These issues are already 
pointed there.

So thanks everybody for noticing.

Best regards,
Marc Richter
