Hi
Thanks. It works fine. Just a pity that something like this had to
change. It worked fine when the cache was create in /tmp.

Our main problem is that the root cache cannot be created for
automounted cifs. For the same reason; the root cache directory will not
be present on a domain client. 

We're testing openSUSE 13.1 beta. It seems that systemd has forced the
change, although the openSUSE guys blame kinit.
