Who knows? I'll work on smart-cards first, as I have one of those (and my group at RedHat is really keen on them :-), but if we ever get information on how the login is communicated to the KDC, then it may well be made to work. This is all by the power of Kerberos. Only the first 'get TGT' step needs to be modified, rather than the whole system. If the fingerprint isn't stored in AD, but compared locally to something on a smartcard, which then unlocks a PKINIT certificate, then perhaps it will 'just work' once I get smartcards in. Who knows?
