kvno of kinit not matching kvno of nfs principal and keytab using LDAP back end

Hi,


Configuration:

The KDC's running MIT Kerberos 1.7.2 (with patches)
LDAP back end
Running on RedHat Linux EL 5.4

I'm curious if there is a known issue that might be fixed with a patch or particular release where the kvno from kinit is 2 but the kvno of the nfs principal and what's in the keytab is 3?  A simple restart of krb5kdc resolves the issue so something seems to get out of sync with the LDAP back end or a possible cache issue?

Before considering moving to a higher version, I would like to know this is very likely fixed.  If not I'll log a bug a try to reproduce in a test environment.

The end result is access to the NFS server is denied due to the kvno mismatch and a restart of krb5kdc fixes the issue.

Any ideas?


Thanks,

Kevin
