OK, fair enough. But you didn't say I could, and I'm usually right to
assume (omission in description) -> (lack of function) (e.g. when
reading vendorhype).

I appreciate that you're interested in publishing. So am I, but I have
a more immediate requirement which ordinary Kerberos will satisfy. I
want to restrict certain document to certain INDIVIDUALS, but allow
those individuals to use ANY workstation (even at a remote site). IP
address filtering won't do that. I don't want simple Kerberos
functionality to be delayed for months while the rest of the community
argues about the finer point of widespread publication.
If this sounds really negative, it's not meant to be. I loudly applaud
the efforts of the folk who are doing this! :-) :-0 :-0 :-0 (3 cheers)
