Hello,
there's a thing I don't understand about application tickets as implemented
in krb4.
If I ask for 5 min. tickets for a specific application, and I want to
reconnect after 6 min, I can't. That is, I didn't find a place in the code
where the client asks kerberos for a new ticket when there's one in the
cache for the same application, that has expired.
The current implementation obligates the client to run kinit whenever he
wants a service for which there's an expired ticket in the cache. Can anybody
explain ?
Carlos.
