I guess you shouldn't (?) Perhaps you could explain Secure Endpoints' role in KFW development? Last I heard from a link on your website, MIT was hiring a full-time developer for KFW. Did that not happen? If I install NIMv2 and report in detail on what I find in our environment, does that give me credits to use? >> Aside, is there a reason for the 2-step credential obtaining >> process where the account is 'checked' then one is given a >> password text entry field?

You can do this today I am asking when the decision might be made to turn it off by default in the master distribution, of course. I already saw and read your previous response. ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list Kerberos@mit.edu https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
