	Ok, here's a problem for our kerberos wizards.  I updated dialup
to standard 6.0C saturday then ran a script to make it a dialup server
which does nothing to effect rlogind except that it makes the workstation
always activated with access always on.  However, if you try to rlogin
into dialup, you get the following result:

	(I, chariot, have tickets at this point)
vulcan [31]% rlogin dialup
Kerberos rlogin failed: Can't decode authenticator (krb_rd_req)
Password: <enter my correct password here>
Login incorrect
login: chariot
Password: <enter my correct password here>
Login incorrect
login: chariot
Password: <enter my correct password here>
Login incorrect
login: root
Password: <enter correct root password here>
	At this point it logs you in as root.

Would someone who knows what "Can't decode authenticator, etc." means
take a look at this and tell me whats screwed please?
						Thanx in advance,
