Re: Linux problem

Dear All & Barry ([email protected]),

Thank you very much for your reply!
Yes! FTP is still working. I have not done any upgrade on ftp client or
server.
The message "login: Cannot resolve network address for KDC in requested
realm while
getting initial credentials" appeared after logging on may have something to
do with
Kerberos security check.

Anyone knows how to disable/check if Kerberos is running?

Many thanks,

Ray
