Hi Folks,

I want to ask especially the folks at inverse, if there is a recommended 
configuration with pf 5.1 .
(I mean which distro do YOU recommend, as you do most testing on it at your 
place...)
Am I right, that you do use RH or centos at INVERSE?

I do ask, because I think I did try nearly every combination (excluding RedHat) 
since January and there wasn't one that ran without issues.
Yes, I did make the mistake to try pf with 4.x and as I wasn't live with the 
system when the 5.0 came out I thought it would be a good idea to start our 
live-life with pf with the new version. Poor me, I even dropped the VM as the 
Installation of the 4.x went so well, I didn't think it could be else with the 
5.x versions.
(YES, I am in programming business, I should have known better... :) )

If I did understand the posts here right, Louis is doing the packaging?
Louis, I DO know how hard packaging and install tests are (in fact, I was part 
of these tests at our place before I got my actual working area) so you do have 
my FULL RESPECT(!!).
You may allow me to suggest this:
May be it would be helpful to test the pf installation at against "changing" 
ADs (not just)INVERSE, because since 5.0 it is a pain in the a.. to get the pf 
working against an own AD which is NOT called "INVERSE" (at least for a 
dumbhead like me, it seems). "INVERSE" seems/seemed(?) to be hardcoded in 
numerous places and neither the krb5.conf, nor the corresponding winbind/samba 
config files looked like they should look like, if one compared them to what 
the pf documentation says they should - for THAT Linux distribution (eg. 
debian).
There is no need for n ADs, just two and the second just to make sure, there 
are no "INVERSE specifics" hardcoded. The more "rudimentary" the second is, the 
easier it is to see, that the "INVERSE" settings are not "templated" for 
everyone.

Bye,
Holger
