Note that RC4-HMAC is the only non-DES enctype available if one needs interoperability with Windows XP systems, which is still an issue for a lot of sites. By contrast, there's much less operational need for either DES or RC4-HMAC-EXP these days. Sites that move from DES to RC4-HMAC are almost certainly much better off, so I would be hesitant to give both of those enctypes the same status as long as Windows XP is still a significant going concern. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> _______________________________________________ ietf-krb-wg mailing list [email protected] https://lists.anl.gov/mailman/listinfo/ietf-krb-wg
