I know that the Beta 4 code submitted by CyberSAFE does support
shortcuts. I tested it myself. Note that the shortcut is provided by
the KDC when responding to a request. If the requested realm is not
present, it will return the ream closest to the target for which it
does share a key. Are you sure that you are not running a mix of old
code with local mods with only some functions from Beta 4.
