This paper presents a solution to the problem of making a trusted third-party authentication protocol fault tolerant. We applied the general solution to the Needham and Schroeder and Kerberos authentication protocols. Finally, we discuss the implementation of a fault-tolerant Kerberos authentication protocol.
