I will bikeshed this thread a little bit:
Can we use kadmin protocol instead of the proprietary LDAP control?

If I remember correctly one of objections was that we do not allow admin to 
read the key but it is not true anymore ... And we have ticket delegation 
capabilities so kadmin process can use credentials of requester to contact LDAP.


I really don't like ipa-getkeytab :-) It is yet another proprietary tool. I 
would like to allow admins experienced with Kerberos to use normal kadmin.

You know, you already made the same question last year when I sent the
first RFC patchset, the answer is in that thread :)

 read the key but it is not true anymore ... And we have ticket delegation 
 capabilities so kadmin process can use credentials of requester to contact 
 LDAP.

Right, but this is not the feedback I was looking for, we already have
ipa-getkeytab and now we need an additional feature this patchset
provides, I'd like comments on the implmentation.

When we will have a way to use kadmin the core of this code will still
be relevant as we'll use the same mechanism to control who can do what.

Simo.
