Ken,

I couldn't agree more!  In fact, I made this point yesterday at a meeting 
where the person who installed this KDC was present.  I was emphatic that 
I would never run a production KDC like this, especially since over the 
years I've found it necessary either to modify the compile time 
configuration, or, more commonly, to troubleshoot problems like this.

But, in fairness, this was intended to be a test KDC with very limited use 
and it has been working thus far, used by just one of my colleagues to 
test his applications that do basic admin functions, where the 
aforementioned problems have not arisen.

I think I may have to do my current testing elsewhere, rather than trying 
to get this KDC functioning properly.

Thanks.

Mike
