Greetings
 I am trying to study the MIT implementation of the protocol. I have noticed
a problem when i try to
get a initial ticket with the pre auth list as
 { ETYPE_INFO2, ENC_TIMESTAMP}
( I have removed the prefix.)
so when i pass this to krb5_get_init_... _password, I get a memory fault. I
have traced it to preauth2.c
where in switch for ETYPE_INFO2 , I get a error return code from
decode_krb5_etype_info2, and
when subsequent free is called (ignoring the return code) it crashes.
        if (ret) {
            ret = 0; /*Ignore error and etype_info element*/
            krb5_free_etype_info( context, etype_info);   <== crash
            etype_info = NULL;
            continue;
      }

My question is how is etype_info2 preauth suppposed to be used? The reason I
want to do this,
so that I don't have to specify the encryption types for pre-auth (as the
current implementation
seems to pick the first key which is aes...).
I don't know whether it is bug or not, but wanted to confirm this. This is
based on 1.4.1 release
(although I have checked the 1.4.3 release and the affected files do not
seem to have changed).

Thanks
