I'm sorry, but this is harsh. I have used mit kerberos for years with
openldap and it works just fine for me. Also, consider that heimdal
development seems stalled and mit's is thriving, and that no current
linux distro ships it by default anymore. I even sent some trivial
patches to the heimdal list and got absolutely no response.  Sometimes I
even wonder if I'm still subscribed, given the super low traffic.
