Hello,

The krb5-send-pr program seg faulted on me and I don't have time to
debug it at the moment, so here's the saved output. In short, something
changed with how the time value is processed as of version 1.4.

>Severity:      non-critical
>Priority:      medium
>Category:      bug
>Class:         sw-bug
>Release:       1.4
>Environment: 
System: SunOS aragorn 5.9 Generic_112233-11 sun4u sparc
SUNW,Sun-Blade-100
Architecture: sun4

>Description:
The setting in /etc/krb5.conf of "600" for the default ticket lifetime 
now defaults to 10 minutes instead of 10 hours!
>How-To-Repeat:
Upgrade to 1.4 and leave "600" as the ticket_lifetime value in krb5.conf

>Fix:
Bump up the ticket_lifetime value. I just added a zero (6000) which gave
me 
12 hour tickets.
