Is anyone working on this? Only talking... I've thought some about moving telnetd's -a option handling to login/PAM, based on a gross thing that Sun's SEAM does :) Essentially: - telnetd execs /bin/login with arguments --pam-service XYZ [<username>] - the "telnet" PAM service works as usual - the "ktelnet" PAM service has a PAM module that re-creates the ccache (if any) containing forwarded creds and/or returns PAM_SUCCESS. - telnetd chooses the PAM service according to wether the authenticated principal has access to the requested account (krb5_kuserok()) > Bob > Cheers, Nico --
