Kris,

I would if we could get some -hackers buy in on the idea.  Adding
more and more auth methods is something they're not excited about
unless there's a good reason (which I think this is).

Actually, I've been trying to get some of the Sun engineers to
contribute patches for Solaris authentication methods, of which GSSAPI
is one.  So in theory someone from Sun should be looking at coding
this.

Sun demonstrated that you could build the existing Kerberos support with the current Solaris 11 beta's. They opened the "native" MIT Kerberos API for outside use.
