I looked at it a while back and figured out why it was happening, at it made sense (I would need to dig in again as it has been a while, but it was something to the effect of the first one being used to authenticate to the file server before factotum was up, then the second one being used to populate factotum?), but I couldn't immediately think of a "good" secure way to fix it at the time and have just been living with it for now. I definitely wouldn't mind that being fixed if it can be done safely, though this might be somewhat challenging for a beginner, as for one thing you would basically need to have at least a bit of a cluster setup to reproduce it.
