Hi,

I'm porting a V4 Kerberized Client that that uses Kerberos to authenticate at 
connection time.  I've installed the NT Alpha2 snapshot, and have linked my 
client into the lib\krb4.   My application cannot find my credentials.  Looking 
at the code, I see that the version for krb_mk_request looks in 
\kerberos\ticket.ses, and the kinit (V5) puts tickets in c:\WINNT\krb5cc.

Is it feasible to use the NT snapshot to talk to a Version 4 Kerberised server?
Can the V4 krb_mk_request obtain credentials from a V5 file cache?

Thanks in advance.
