Tom, could you please provide us with the source of the "purified" gsstest-1.26?
Is it still compatible with the behavior of current SAP R/3 systems, or will SAP have to upgrade their software accordingly?
If you didn't do it already: I would suggest to contact martin.rex _at_ sap.com about the bugs in gsstest as they may also concern their product. And the users of SAP R/3 could get the necessary patches against the memory leaks, etc.
In our implementation we currently have to (at least automatically) restart workprocesses of R/3 periodically due to this sort of leakages.
Best regards,
Calin Barbat

I have found the relevant bug. It is ticket #3182 in our bug database, and will be fixed in the next release. gss_inquire_cred() was copying out an uninitialized pointer.
Meanwhile, I have been running gsstest-1.26 under Purify, and have found additional bugs in both gsstest and our gssapi library. I'm still working on fixing some of them. (Most of them are memory
leaks.)
