Problems with rootd (1.03/03)

Hello!

I'm having problems with rootd of version 1.03/03 on Sun (SunOS 5.5.1) and
SGI (IRIX 5.3). Both machines are using AFS 3.4. The client was a Linux
machine without AFS using ROOT 1.03/04. 

On the SGI I'm not able to authenticate:
  Error in <TNetFile::Authenticate>: wrong passwd
  Error in <TNetFile::TNetFile>: autentication failed for host y4me

On the Sun the authentication works fine but there is a <defunct> process
left for each closed TNetFile:
      UID   PID  PPID  C    STIME TTY      TIME CMD
  casties 10611  8896  0                   0:00 <defunct>
  casties  9265  8896  0                   0:00 <defunct>
[lots more...]
  casties 11833  6621  0 17:10:09 pts/36   0:00 egrep (PID|cas)
  casties  8896     1  0 14:53:20 ?        0:00 rootd -p 5151
  casties  6621  6580  0 13:13:41 pts/36   0:01 -zsh
The processes disappear when the deamon is killed.

Otherwise this is a very nice feature (since I don't have access to AFS on
my Linux-PC :-) 

Have there been any changes in rootd since 1.03/03? Might it be worth
trying rootd of 1.03/04?


Cheers
	Robert
