At this site, we have two host machines. One runs FreeBSD 2.1.0, and the 
other runs Linux 1.2.13. The FreeBSD acts as a kerberos host for our 
terminal servers. We are using eBones for kerberos, due to US export 
restrictions etc. eBones is, as far as I know, not available for Linux.
The Linux machine is for shell accounts and mail.

Now, to my question. Can NIS be set up to use the Kerberos database for 
password information? At the moment, users have two passwords. One for 
dialing in, and then one for mail and shell etc., so there is no easy way 
for the users to change their dialin passwords(They don't have accounts 
on the kerberos host). All I want to do is use the kerberos password file 
as this networks central password file.

Also, speaking of kerberos, is there a way to remove a user from the 
kerberos database?
