I have 4 questions:

1)  Is it true that OSF has adopted both Kerberos and AFS for DCE ?

if "yes":

2)  Is OSF aware that the authentication mechanism shipped with AFS is
incompatible with
     Kerberos ?

if "yes":

3)  Which of the mechanisms is to form part of DCE ?

4)  What strategy has been evolved to incorporate existing AFS and
Kerberos users into the
    DCE world ?
