[Freeipa-users] unable to logout of IPA

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is relevant, but Firefox preserves session
cookies across browser restarts. This was discussed on the Security
Now! podcast recently:

http://www.grc.com/sn/sn-360.htm

Search for 'sessionstore' and read a little before and after.

Are session cookies relevant for kerberos authentication?

Maybe you could try a different browser to see if logging out works.

Thanks,

Dan
