Yes. But the issue is: with the existing AM, it supports multiple credentials for different hosts. If there were a separate tab for Kerberos, I assume it could support multiple Kerboros entries for different hosts. How would the GUI support both Kerberos and non-Kerberos? It would be very odd if some of the credentials were not visible but were still active. So I suspect we either need to somehow use the same table, or perhaps add another table that is visible concurrently. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
