Hi Bill,

i am Andras back from the holidays.

We made the upgrade to 5300-05-00, but since then we cannot authenticate with our
DCE-testuser. (It is registarted in a DCE cell. Auth-method: password)

Do you have any idea what has been changed with the TL-05 uggrade?
I send a small piece of log (s. below), but it doesn't hold too much info for me.
The password was ok before the upgrade, but since then i cannot even login to the AIX
with it.

Thanks in advance
Andras
