Hello everybody, I'm rewriting to this list because my problems with the user authentication persist: all my users have to authenticate either with a Kerberos Ticket or with username/password. This authentication fails sometimes - please see the following two examples: (1) Client 1, Windows 7 with Firefox, basic authentication 1386845741.085 438915 <client_1> TCP_MISS/200 23228 CONNECT outlook.office365.com:443 <user_1> DIRECT/132.245.210.6 - 1386845741.142 54 <client_1> TCP_DENIED/407 1657 CONNECT outlook.office365.com:443 - NONE/- text/html After the first (successful) authentication, some milliseconds later the failure (same user!). Apparently, no authentication data is provided. (2) Client 2, Ubuntu 12.04 with Firefox, Kerberos 1386845730.212 50 <client_2> TCP_MISS/302 896 GET http://www.google.com/search? <user@REALM> DIRECT/173.194.32.212 text/html 1386845743.861 145 <client_2> TCP_DENIED/407 1738 GET http://bits.wikimedia.org/de.wikipedia.org/load.php? - NONE/- text/html 1386845743.948 231 <client_2> TCP_MISS/200 33809 GET http://bits.wikimedia.org/de.wikipedia.org/load.php? <user@REALM> DIRECT/91.198.174.233 text/css Here we have a chain of success/failure/succes (same user). If you decode the time stamps, you will see that there differences are only about some milliseconds. Is anybody out there with an idea? Thanks in advance, Juergen
