Is there a way to configure openSUSE (any distro version actually) to
use single-signon for ALL services?
After playing with AD samba, kerberos, PAM (some, I dont really know PAM
yet) configurations I still have issues with the following:

1.  KDE still asks for a username and password when accessing windows
shares (unless I statically enter the user pass combination in kcontrol)

2.  CUPS needs static username password combination to access windows
(samba) printers.

3.  Firefox still asks for user;pass when accessing local NTLM pages.
(not a OS issue, I know)

4.  Evolution saves user;pass in keyring somewhere

5.  knetworkmanager saves user;pass in kwallet

Everytime our IT admin forces us to change our passwords I have to
manually go and change it for all of the above.
And if I forget - like with CUPS - and try and print, it locks my
account.

I know this is a lot harder than it sounds, but why don't all apps just
use something like PAM to auth user activity?
Why have keyrings, wallets, registries, credentials files, etc?

Later,
Hans
ps. I actually know the answer, but still want to know if anyone else is
also annoyed by this?
