Kerberos KDC Handling of Postdated Tickets

ID: Q248755

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows 2000 Server

SYMPTOMS

The Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) does not issue postdated tickets. This part of the Kerberos version 5 protocol (IETF RFC-1510) has not been implemented in Windows 2000.

If a TGS-REQ request is made for a postdated ticket, the KDC generates a "KRB-ERROR" error message instead of issuing the ticket. This may affect interoperability with customer programs, although none are currently known to use this protocol feature.

CAUSE

No known programs currently use this feature.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
