Subject: WARNING: Read this if you use Kermit 95 with Kerberos on NT
Date: 28 Oct 1998 05:01:54 GMT

If you are using Kermit 95 with Kerberos (any version) on NT
you must be aware of the following known problem with Service Pack 4:
When SP4 is installed on a laptop or other machine that has
an Ethernet adapter which may be removed from the system, if the
machine attaches to the network via a PPP Adapter, Kerberos will
be unable to determine the proper IP address being used by the
computer. Instead of using the IP address assigned to the PPP
adapter, it will instead use the IP address of the Ethernet adapter.
This will cause all generated service tickets to be rejected by
their hosts.
If you use K95 and Kerberos on NT, make sure that users who might
be affected by this problem do not install SP4.
Since it is unlikely that Microsoft will produce a Post-SP4 fix
to this problem (a similar problem is already in Win98 Winsock 2)
the only solution is to distribute new versions of the Kerberos
libraries when they are available.
