Description Simo Sorce 2010-06-03 13:44:11 UTC
Description of problem:
When a machine changes its password, it need to retain the old one in order to be able to accept kerberos tickets released to clients before the password change occurred. Otherwise clients will be incorrectly denied access causing errors.

Upstream has a non invasive patch that solves this issue in bug 7099.
