Greetings all,

I've been looking into running KRB5 and NIS.  Alas, portmapped
services are somewhat firewall-unfriendly, a la FTP.  True,
deny-by-default "keeps the bad guys out", but I can think of
instances where one might want to allow selected access from
specific IP addresses...

It also seems logical to combine user/group info with KRB
authentication.

What about:

* Portmapped services can be assigned to static UDP/TCP ports
* KRB5 gets to play ypserv.

Note that a beneficial side effect would be that we needn't worry
about returning the shadow password map... KRB handles auth.

It seems to me that a small amount of hacking might yield a
single, centralized user management system that is friendly to
firewalls.

Anything like this exist?  Any interest?


Eddy

P.S. -- I'm an NIS newbie.  I'll take no offense if someone says
that I need to be larted with a clue-by-four, as long as there's
a bit of constructive criticism. :-)
