Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

It hasn't been fully tested yet, although it has been in production in Red Hat for a few months now - it's how we do the same thing - simple username/password auth against Kerberos.

Yes, because with the plugin, fedora ds simply passes the
credentials
through to PAM, which can be configured to do kerberos auth
(local or
remote). So, instead of using saslauthd (as in openldap) you
just use
PAM to do the same thing.


I’m curious how the pam framework allows for a kerberos
principal/realm and password to be checked...

I.e. Lets say, in openldap, I have {KERBEROS}user@xxxxxxxxxxxxx,
under openldap, this works as expected.

You’re saying that I can use the pam pass through module and then put

rhuid: user@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

And then in /etc/pam.d/ldapserver (or whatever I compile it as the
name to be), configure it in such a way that

Pam will return success..

Maybe pam_krb5.so?

Ahh.. Maybe no_user_check...

Now I see what you might be referring to..

Thanks!
