as it often happens to me i discovered this myself shortly after
mailing my note - sorry to bother you. however, i do have another
question. when i created my first principal in the database, most
dates appeared to be set to 1969:

kdb5_edit:  show ams

Key version: 1
Maximum life: 1 day 00:00:00
Maximum renewable life: 7 days 00:00:00

kdb5_edit:

i'm about to set out figuring out why this is happening. perhaps,
this is something you've already seen? 

also, could you tell me what format should i use to specify
dates in kdb5_edit - i'm having difficulty figuring it out from
the code. i tried various combinations like

kdb5_edit: modent -pwexpire "Dec 31 19:00:00 2037" ams

but to no avail. thanks,
