You might be able to use pgina which is a windows login screen replacement.

There was someone working on a kerberos plugin for it. I am not sure how far they got. (I haven't tried the 2.x series) I do know I had openldap (with failover) working with it via a sasl-pam mech. I didn't get the kerberos plugin working but that was in the 1.6.x or 1.8.x series. ) ...

Here is what I found for the pgina krb5 plugin:

Although it would not be as ideal as Samba4 with a working AD domain controller, pGina sounds like a great alternative. However, since I'm using Windows XP only, that means I would still be restricted to the last version of pGina 1.x: v1.8.8 from December the 6th, 2006. See these pGina pages:

   http://www.pgina.org/index.php/Main_Page
   http://www.pgina.org/index.php/PGina_1.x_Downloads

In addition, judging from the contents of the link you supplied, timc meant his plugin to work with pGina 2.x, and he hasn't updated his plugin since October the 6th, 2008.

Therefore, I'm going to conclude that pGina v1.8.8 does not support Kerberos out of the box, or else timc would not have bothered, and that his plugin will not work with it either, just as you discovered for yourself earlier. Pity.

Thanks anyway, though. If, in lieu of Samba4, a Vista machine, or a more modern Windows client, appears on any of my Kerberos/OpenLDAP/OpenAFS networks, then I will certainly remember to give your solution a try!

Cheers,

Jaap
