Yes, it solves the delta_t problem, it's evident... but then:

- if I get my personal tokens with aklog, they are not usable to reach my
protected files 
  When I try to do so, the tokens get invalidated.
  (there has been a patch on the air for that, this is special for Win2k... 
  Isn't it included in the WinNT binary distribution ???)

- if I try to get "admin" tokens, klog replies:
  "Unable to authenticate to AFS because user doesn't exist."
