Not really. On the contrary -- it makes it more difficult.

But having true krb5-tickets on the client-side makes single-sign-on
easier.

With krb5 I miss the robustness of ubik and automatic replication.

MIT and Heindal are single-master systems afaik. I don't know if there
are free multimaster KDCs available.
