Doug,
I believe that I am seeing the problem which John discussed and
that HP has a fix for DCE server for this problem.
We do.
I am also going to try and get the fix for the Transarc version.
The fix to the flagbits order problem went into both the DCE1.1 source
base and into HP's source base some time ago. The patch we made for
1.1 should work for *any* released source version of DCE.
I believe that the problem is fixed in the patches to HP DCE/9000
version 1.20 or 1.21.
Basically the problem was that when we changed the underlying ASN.1
used by the DCE implementation of kerberos from ISODE to MAVROS, we
left the bitstring bit-reversal code in place in the glue code.
Ripping that out fixed the problem.
