Yeah, I know. :-) You were able to get mod_auth_kerb to run with something
else? My attempts were unsuccessful (w/Apache 2.0.46, when I tried it). To
be specific I was trying to use mod_auth_kerb for authentication, and looking
for a way to use mod_auth_ldap to help with the group part, but I had no such
luck. I could never get the two to play well together.
