I curious to see how many people out there are using fully qualified
hostnames in their instances for services. For example:
rcmd.slapshot.stanford.edu@IR.STANFORD.EDU
As opposed to:
rcmd.slapshot@IR.STANFORD.EDU
I've been setting up some kerberos clients and am using V4pl10 with some
CMU patches to krb_get_phost and patches for AFS (we are running kaserver).
It seem like using long instances is "the right thing" to do, but if it
is going to cause us interoperability with other kerberos clients it
probably isn't worth it.
thanks, I'll summarize if there is interest (or any responses :-).
