Re: KEYRING:persistent and ssh

we use a pam module that normalizes the credential cache. If krb5.conf asks for KEYRING and sshd leaves the cache in /tmp, the code moves it into KEYRING and updates KRB5CCNAME.

I really like KEYRING. Our staff have multiple principals. With a collection, kinit will create a new cache in the collection without disrupting the old one, so kswitch can take you back. We use two-factor, so we’d rather not have to get new credentials.

However there’s a gotcha. Kerberized NFS uses (by default) the currently selected principal. So for a collection to be useful, we also have a ccselect plugin to make sure that NFS (actually rpc.gssd) always gets the right principal from the collection.
