Sun-Managers,

Concerning my message on time stamp errors like these:

Feb 11 04:08:39 falcon nisd[118]: _svcauth_des: invalid timestamp received
from unix.raven@nssf.af.mil
Feb 11 04:12:01 falcon nisd[118]: _svcauth_des: timestamp is earlier than
the one previously seen from unix.dream@nssf.af.mil
Feb 11 07:10:50 falcon nisd[118]: _svcauth_des: invalid timestamp received
from unix.falcon@nssf.af.mil

I got varied responses, most of which generally said ignore them, they are
due to an unfixable bug in Solaris 2.3.
I was forwarded one response from Sun:

This is a known problem in 2.3. These messages are informational
only, and do not denote any real problem. In Solaris 2.4,
the syslog level of this message has been changed so that
it won't flood your messages file with unimportant messages:

>From the bug report:

 Bug Id: 1155266
 Product: sunos
 Category: network
 Subcategory: rpc
 Release summary: s1093
 Bug/Rfe: bug
 State: integrated
 Synopsis: __svcauth_des() attempts to print timestamp is earlier than the
one previously.
 Keywords: than, earlier, timestamp, print, attempts, __svcauth_,
verifiesrs, credential,
nisplus, svcauth_de, rpc.nisd
 Severity: 4
 Priority: 4
 Description:
NIS+ server attempts to print RPC error msg as "nisd: _svcauth_des:
timestamp is
earlier than the one previously seen from unix.xxxx@domainname" several
times.

 Work around:
Ignore the message.
 
State triggers:
         Evaluation:

[ Feb, 22 '94]

Also a Sun Database entry on the subject:

L. _svcauth_des: invalid timestamp received from <principal>
     Timestamp received from client is corrupted or server decrypts using
     the wrong key.
     This is not recoverable without user/admin. intervention.
     Error returned to client = AUTH_BADVERF on initial requests,
     REJECTEDVERF on subsequent requests.
      
     Possible causes:
     - Congested network.
     - Server cached out the entry for this client.
       
     Possible actions:
     - Re-execute command.
     - Check the network load.

M. _svcauth_des: timestamp is earlier than the one previously seen from
   <principal>
     Timestamp received from client (subsequent calls only) is earlier
     than the one seen previously from this client.
     This is not recoverable without user/admin. intervention.
Error returned to client = REJECTEDVERF
        
     Possible causes:
     - Clock skew between client and server.
     - Server cached out the entry for this client.
       
     Possible actions:
     - Synchronize client/server clocks.
     - Re-execute command.

I did frequent rdates and that did not work.
This may not be a big problem but obviously it is very annoting to alot of
people, if I get any more responses or discover a patch I will resummarize.
