Hi,

In pushing for Kerberos within my organization, I've received some vague
negative comments regarding the scalability of Kerberos to a large (~20K node)
network.  Can anyone address the issue more clearly, or provide input on
whether this is, in fact, a real issue?  I assume other large organizations
(MIT...) must handle this, if it is a problem. 

Any feedback would be helpful.

Thanks,
Dave
