Robert,

For this to work, the UNIX KDC needs to support the PKINIT standard at the same draft 
level as Microsoft (I believe this is draft 9). Do you know if your KDC supports 
PKINIT ?

Thanks, Tim.

Subject: Smartcard logon using Unix KDC

Hi,

   I try to arrange an environment, where users can logon to a Kerberos realm from 
Windows 2000 workstations via smartcard logon.
   I've already reached a point where normal password logon works from Windows 
workstations to the Kerberos realm, and the smartcard logon works from the Windows 
workstations to the Windows domain.
   However when I tested the smartcard logon from a Windows workstation to the 
Kerberos KDC, the workstation initiated a normal password logon to the Unix KDC 
instead of smartcard logon (according to the network traffic). I repeat: I initiated a 
logon using the smartcard logon process, typed the PIN but the network flow between 
the workstation and the Unix KDC was similar to the normal password logon case.
   My questions: is it the intentional working mechanism of the Windows 2000 
workstations that it initiates a normal password logon to Unix KDC's or I have missed 
something? If it is intentional, however what part of the security system is 
responsible for it: the GINA, the LSA, ths SSP, maybe the corresponding CSP or other? 
What should I change in the system to make this environment work?
   Has anyone have any experience with such an environment?


thanks,
Robert Pragai
