This note is for thoes who may be trying to do the same and to check my sanity with those who may know better. My findings through trial and error are: 1. Xyplex V5 ticket requests will work on the V5beta5 server if the user-name/password entries were added with 'kdb5_edit ank'. 2. Xyplex V4 ticket requests will NOT work on the V5beta5 server if the user-name/password entries are added with kdb5_edit ank. 3. Xyplex V4 ticket requests will work on the V5beta5 server if the user-name/password entries are added with kdb5_edit av4k or if they are added using the kdb5_convert utility to convert V4 database to V5 server. 4. Xyplex V5 ticket requests will NOT work on the V5beta5 server if the user-name/password entries are added with the kdb5_edit av4k or if they are added using the kdb5_convert utility to convert V4 database to V5 server. It seems that kerberos V5 beta 5 can service either V4 or V5 requests but the database stores V4 and V5 user-name/passwords differently, and that each entry is either a V4 or a V5 entry but they can NOT be interchanged.
