Mr. Hartman,

Yes, the MIT kdc is a Solaris 8 machine.  We used the Solaris snoop process 
to capture the packets on the same box.  The capture does include all 
kerberos client packets involving the trng07 principle.

Windows XP Pro Client (mws215.uncc.edu)
Sun Solaris 8 Server running MIT KDC v1.2.6 (ws470.uncc.edu)
