>From what I've seen, that's not required; the server's host address is
always correct when viewed from the client (at least in every NAT I've
ever seen), and it's my understanding that KRB_PRIV only requires the
destination address, so the reply should always "work".  If I'm wrong
and I can't get around changing the client, then of course the obious
solution is to use directional addresses.
