Sorry, I guess I was. Probably more correct to say that in the 
system here, the PAM is the authentication agent, and LDAP is 
the backend directory service.

So if get the Heimdal Kerberos work with OpenLDAP as backend, it 
should work fine to authenticate AFS, is that correct? So I can 
put all user and grouping informations in the LDAP, and used / 
passed by the Kerberos agent to authenticate / authorize usage 
of AFS files and directories?

Thanks!
