Greetings, i am using here FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE amd64 with dovecot 1.0.13. Gssapi auth on our dovecot setup did not work for some time, so i wanted to fix it today. I run into an auth failure, where my mutt was not able to login. Also mutt was not able to login, i had a imap/mail2.physik-pool.tu-berlin.de principal in my credentials cache after an try. I can work around with a "ln -s /etc/mail.krb5.keytab /etc/krb5.keytab" to this.

MfG Christop
