536077 2007-03-26 20:47:00 I'm having a small problem with my kerberos setup. Yesterday it was working fine, but today it's incredibly slow to authenticate anything; in fact it takes so long that my mail client is timing out just waiting for the authentication to finish. This isn't just on the clients either - even trying to authenticate on the KDC takes forever. I'm using the debian etch version of MIT kerberos. It's not a clock sync issue.

I have been using kinit to test authentication times - sometimes it takes as long as 5 minutes to authenticate. :badpc:

As almost everything on my network uses this kerberos system for authentication, it's driving me nuts.:waughh:

Any ideas?

Between this morning and now, the problem seems to have fixed itself. No idea what happened, but now all is calm, all is bright, round yon...
