We are having trouble gettin the DCM and the update server to
authenticate with kerberos.  It seems the is a little program  
called "smskey" that writes directly to the srvtab file.
For us this is a major no-no.   Is it required that we use this 
method?  Would a normal srvtab entry for "sms" work?  If not please
explain the strange way Kerberos authentication is used 
by the DCM and update server.

Signed,
        A very confused porter of Moira.
