Nico,

Oh, OK.  Still, the old KDC is on a Sparc Ultra-5;  the new system is an
Ultra-10.  And the new stash file I tested with this morning was created
on the Ultra-10.

As for my old stash file (corresponding to the existing db master key):  I
have no problem with it in any other respect.  Eg, normal authentication of
principals, use of kadmin from a remote system and, for that matter, starting
up the daemons in the first place.  All this works with the same db and stash
file on 1.2.5 as it did on 1.2.1.

Anyway, as I said, I'll leave this alone for now.  In fact, until I saw your
note of last May, I didn't even know about the undocumented feature (though
I've always felt there should be such a capability).

Mike
