[comp.protocols.kerberos] time out of bounds on a single machine

da@CS.BROWN.EDU (David Ascher) (12/20/90)

I'm testing a kerberos client-server setup, and I've been starting the
client happily every few source code modifications.  Everything worked
fine, I got mutual authentication, etc.  This last time, however,
after modifying one character in a character string (nothing to do
with Kerberos), the client quits from recv_sendauth with the 
 
 "Time is out of bounds (krb_rd_req)" 

message.  The client and server are on the _same_ unix box (sun
Sparc1, sunOS4.1).  How could this be?

(I've kdestroyed, kinited again, can't seem to get anywhere)

thanks for any info.

Is the Kerberos server on the same machine?  All three processes
(kerberos server, client app, server app) need to be losely
syncronized, not just the client and server.

yes, all three processes were running on the same machine.  It still
baffles me, although later that night, i recompiled the sever, rebooted
themachine, and hat fixed it.  If it happens again I'll try t narrow it
down further.
