SYMPTOMS
When a Kerberos realm is added to the realm list, it may not be updated until the client is rebooted. This problem can occur when interfacing with third-party Kerberos implementations.



CAUSE
Windows 2000 does not have the correct expectations when sending a referral to a non-Windows 2000 Kerberos realm. This causes the Key Distribution Center (KDC) to generate an improper referral.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows 2000. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
