I think some clarification is needed here. We HAVE implemented a kinit/aklog
solution on the 600 or so clients (Solaris, Windos XP, Linux) we control.
Unfortunately, we have have a lot of folks that manage their own machines (so to
speak :-)) who access our cell. We were trying to continue to support them
seamlessly by using fakeka and ka-forwarder. The plan worked well for the
non-Windows clients but unfortunately we didn't take into account that
fakeka/ka-forwarder only supports RX.
Right now we seem to have 2 choices:
A) Hack fakeka and ka-forwarder to support K4 so that the Windows klog will work
or
B) Educate and convince the folks that fall into this group to install K5 and
aklog.
Of course, we are open to other ideas as well.
