# NOTE: this is not using 'straight up' kerberos in that we
# relay passwords through cobblerd for authentication, that may
# be done later.  It does of course check against kerberos,
# however.

# ALSO NOTE:  we're calling out to a Perl program to make
# this work.  You must install  Authen::Simple::Kerberos
# from CPAN and the Kerberos libraries for this to work.
# See the Cobbler Wiki for more info.

# ALSO ALSO NOTE:  set kerberos_realm in /var/lib/cobbler/settings
# to something appropriate or this will never work.  CASING
# MATTERS.  example.com != EXAMPLE.COM.
