Modern Kerberos does not have that constraint between the client and
the KDC.  (Or between the client and server).  It does have that
constraint between the KDC and server--which is kind of ironic given
there are no message flows directly between the KDC and server.


Yes, I should add that to the work necessary to use Kerberos in this
situation.  


I think relaxing the time constraint is doable.
