All, On May 11, 2005, ACNS plans to upgrade the Kerberos authentication service associated with MSU's AFS service. The new server will support Kerberos 5 authentication. It will continue to support Kerberos 4 authentication and AFS in compatibility mode. The May 11 change should be transparent to users. System administrators need take no action; however, if you support an application that depends on Kerberos, we urge you to test the application prior to May 11. Please visit http://msu.edu/service/afs/migrate/ for more details on how you can test this system in advance of the migration. We have a Powerpoint presentation at the link "Timelines & Plans" that may be of interest to you. I will also be available at the next NAG meeting April 22 to answer questions.
