Yeah I was looking this over the other day...
 
Has anyone been using the VAS product that is described. I would be curious to hear RW experiences.
 
Our UNIX Kerberos integration folks have been fighting with multirealm issues and cert expiration with chatter about possibly having us extend the expiration on certs where I would be more inclined to shorten the expiration for security reasons [1]. MS really did some good things with kerberos in these areas and it seems MIT isn't really looking at making their version any more friendly to give similar functionality (auto renew, realistic cross-realm) as the MS stuff has built in.

[1] Like for having tickets get reverified more often in case of disabled accounts, etc.

I thought the list might be interested in the following:

 

The Microsoft Solutions for UNIX Team has released some new guidance that will help you get integrate UNIX accounts with Active Directory.  This is a new solution that covers building security and directory solutions for UNIX using the Windows Server 2003 Active Directory Kerberos and LDAP Services. 

 

Overview

 

This guide provides prescriptive guidance to enable Microsoft® Windows Server(tm) 2003 to be used for authentication and as an identity and authorization data store within heterogeneous Microsoft Windows® and UNIX environments. The guidance covers evaluating, planning, building, and deploying a security and directory infrastructure based on Windows Server 2003. The guidance will be valuable for business and technical decision makers, IT architects, and systems administrators participating in infrastructure consolidation or integration projects.
