What kind of OTP systems are vulnerable to replay attacks?

And what are the replay attacks?  Could it be something else than
gaining a ticket, f.ex. desynchronising?  Do we have replay attacks on
_parts_ of the chain that we have to protect against?

The OTP preauth draft touches on the subject in section 6.4 but I think
I'd need some more thoughts.
