I've been working on a HOWTO, but it' snot done yet.

For this you need to recompile postgresql using --with-krbsrvnam=POSTGRES on both client and server. (You will be able to change this at runtime in 8.1) Naturally you will have to recreate the service account in AD with the proper SPN. //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
