Of course -- but can Cyrus be configured to support _both_ Kerberos (credentials authenticated via GSSAPI) and LDAP (via saslauthd)? Some users will use Kerberos credentials, others may use username/password which we will look up in LDAP. (It is not necessarily the case that all users will have corresponding Kerberos credentials, else pam_krb5 would be appropriate.) I suspect the answer is no, but I need independent verification. -Tim -- Tim Strobell, Sr. Systems Administrator V 202 767 8449 Center for Computational Science, Naval Research Lab F 202 404 7402 Code 5595 (A49-32), 4555 Overlook Ave SW, Washington DC 20375 ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
