 I don't know much about Kerberos.  Isn't it supposed to do some sort of 
three-way handshake that eliminates the need for the user to type a 
password?  Straight PAM authentication probably wouldn't be capable of 
doing that?  
   
 There is a very specific reason why I called that new config variable 
"auth mode" -- it implies that there could end up being several different 
authentication modes, not simply "host auth on/off".  
   
 In particular, as part of BossRoss's project, I may end up implementing 
an auth mode that speaks LDAP directly instead of using pam_ldap as a 
shim.
