Ok,

I'll investigate that problem a little more ... maybe I can provide=20
some more information at some point in the future.

I saw you set the max ticket size to 12000.

Wouldn't that manipulate the functionality of a kaserver granting a
token to an old client (by client I mean a machine with an older
OpenAFS)?


It should not.


I had some trouble with that but don't exactly know where they were
coming from.


There is a requirement that the pioctl() calls be able to handle the
larger ktc_token

structure.=A0 However, these calls are local to the client.=A0 As long =
as
the client installation

on a given machine is consistent there will be no issues.


What we cannot do is alter the size or structure of the ktc_principal
since that

structure does need to be transmitted between client and server.
