>Description:
I've configured abigail as a Kerberos v5 machine. I can telnet to other
v5 machines with no problem. However, when I try to telnet from abigail
to abigail, I get the error that i"Keberos v5 refuses authentication because
telnetd: krb5_rd_req failed: Unknown Key table type." I've made sure that
that my keytab is v5.

done.
>Fix:
I suppose the fix is self evident. Telnet automatically goes to v4. But, after
spending an inordinate amount of time installing the GNU utilities just so I
could *COMPILE* v5, I'd like to get it to work. I've also got to propagate v5
to eight other HP workstations here.
