Subject: Question about an interesting 6piece endgame

This interesting position below  happened in a match between F6 and ChessTiger14
and it was a matter of some questions about the right access towards
the EGTBS by CT14 under CB GUIs in the CSS-Forum.
My Chessbase CT14 shows after some time a mate in 95! by Kf7 and Ncb8
but testing it with the latest CB-Native Crafty18.08 the result given
by it was(around the same time as CT14) mate in 100!!
So now I am curious about the exact length of it in this position.
My first idea was to download the given 6piece at Bobs site but I had recognize
(with some disappointment;) that this special file does not exist there..uhuuhu
Maybe its because of the two pawns on one side in it and therefore it is on
the long long "not really urgent to do list"?!
If anyone knows about this file in the net please tell meeee!
Otherwise I would appreciate to know the naked truth about the length of
this mate as I could not sleep before knowing it :))
But I strongly doubt anyone knows this <b>without</b> having that TB...
6k1/1P6/n1n5/P7/8/8/3K4/8 b - - 0 1
