Then the login work. When trying to log in a user authenticated by krb5, the login fail. At least some times. :) Restarting kdm make the login work also for kerberos authenticated users. > If my understanding that blocking kdm on krb5-kdc could > delay/prevent administrative logins in a case where something is > hanging trying to come up, then I'm against making this change or > encouraging display managers to do so. This is not what would happen if the x-start-before header was added. This is simply a question of ordering boot scripts, not about blocking the possibility of logging in with non-kerberos users.
