[WinPartners] Kerberos tickets never expire (?)

[Eduardo Gonzalez]

I do see those options that you're talking about, but I never changed it from the default (default ticket lifetime 10 hours). Its gotta be some sort of bug. This didn't happen with Kerberos 2.5. Its not a huge deal to me at all.. since my computer just locks itself automatically when the screen saver comes on, but its not supposed to work this way.

I'll keep on providing feedback to either the Help Desk or to the Kerberos team, if there is such a thing.

>>Is it my machine or has anyone seen this? Ever since installing the new version of Kerberos (version 2.6.3; Windows XP Pro), my tickets apparently never expire. For example, when I come back from the weekend my tickets are still valid and when I open Eudora my email just downloads! It happens every morning. Should I be surprised by this..? I don't remember reading anything in the release notes as to this change in behavior, and I'm concerned for obvious reasons. I haven't looked at its settings because I wanted to run this by you first.
