Hi,

I've been configuring our Directory Server implementation to use gss-api
for authentication, and it works great! However I ran into a bit of a
snag and was hoping someone on the list might have a suggestion for a
resolution!

I followed the docs during my configuration and all went well

http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/ag/8.0/Introduction_to_SASL-Configuring_Kerberos.html

I'm able to bind to our ldap replicas with my TGT when I search the real  
hostname, however we load balance our replicas behind a Cisco SLB which serves 
out a second hostname and IP. 

I've updated the ldap keytab file to include both the Kerberos principles for 
the real hostname, and the slb hostname, and am still able to sucessfully bind 
with Kerberos to the real hostname, but not through the SLB. 

I had a similar problem with kerberized ssh a while back, and the solution 
there was a patch to openssh which allowed Kerberos to use any principle in the 
keytab file. (the GSSAPIStrictAcceptorCheck flag in ssh provides this)  Does 
FDS have any similar configuration option? Or had anyone run into this sort of 
issue while trying to bind to ldap via kerberos? 

I'd also be willing to load balance the servers useing some other means beside 
the SLB. 

Thanks!!


Tim
