have you considered using PAM auth with the krb_auth module it wont support keys but it will at least make it so it pulls the  password off of the kerberos server and it is compatible with AD.

Hello all,

I'm trying to get authentication of users via Kerberos/active directory on Redhat (basically, stick approved domain users into cimuser [without giving the password, if possible], and authenticating the domain user via kerberos). I noticed that the PEGASUS_KERBEROS_AUTHENTICATION environment variable is only defined for IBM zOS, and I can't find any documentation at all. Is this feature supported or is it effectively dead? If effectively dead, where should I go about to get it working?

Thank you,
Johnny Hwang
