[Dovecot] v 1.1.13 / GSSAPI / Timeout waiting for handshake from auth server

[Jahnke-Zumbusch, Dirk]

Dear all,

I am trying to setup Dovecot with GSSAPI support. For testing purposes
gssapi is the
only method allowed for login. 

As I cannot login to my mailbox, I'vo got two questions about the following
log entries:

dovecot: Info: auth-worker(default): passwd-file
/dovecot/store/db/test-userdb: Read 3 users
dovecot: Info: auth(default): new auth connection: pid=3915
dovecot: Info: auth(default): 
  client in: AUTH  1  GSSAPI  service=imap lip=131.169.*.*  rip=131.169.*.*
lport=143  rport=35779
dovecot: Info: auth(default): gssapi(?,131.169.40.218): Obtaining
credentials for imap at my.host.name
dovecot: Error: imap-login: Timeout waiting for handshake from auth server.
my pid=3918, input bytes=0

1. I am puzzled about the credentials "imap at my.host.name" being obtained;
shouldn't this be
   something like "imap/my.host.name at MY.REALM" ?

2. what does "Timeout waiting for handshake from auth server." mean? Who is
trying to
   handshake with whom? 

Any ideas?

Best regards,
Dirk
