The sample_client/sample_server application runs fine as long as
the ticket has not expired.  If the ticket _has_ expired, krb_sendauth()
merely returns a generic failure status.  Does someone have a slick way
(and/or sample source code) for a client that recognizes when authentication
did not take place because of an expired ticket and, if so, obtains
a fresh ticket and performs a re-try?

Many thanks,
