I'm working on something at the moment where I'd like to be able to
authenticate via Kerberos to a DirectoryService node.
I'm ok with the Kerberos Login API, and can happily do
dsDoDirNodeAuth with usernames and passwords, but I'm just wondering
if anyone knows whether it's possible to do Kerberos authentication
with the DirectoryServices API?
I can get the kerberos principal for a given username with
kDSStdAuthGetKerberosPrincipal, so is the idea that I should be
grabbing an authorization ref from somewhere and using that to auth
to the node? A search of the archives seemed to suggest that NetInfo
is the only plugin that actually supports such an authentication
method at the moment.
I'm starting to get the impression that I'll have to use the lower
level ldap_kerberos_bind_s() rather than DirectoryServices if I want
to do Kerberos authentication? Does anyone know if this is right?
