kerberos + gssapi password change

Hello 

I am not a developer, but since this is a more advanced issue I rather 
post to this list than to the users list, I hope this is OK.

We are currently running openssh with simon's gssapi patch and want to 
move towards the new integrated solution with openssh-3.7.1p2. A problem 
we experienced in both versions of openssh is that we are not able to 
change the kerberos password, when it expires. I used James'  patch but it 
seemed to not work well with simon's gssapi patch and as such we decided 
not to integrate it. James told me that he believes password change is now 
working with the changes, but I am unable to get it working and am 
wondering if this is a known limitation still and if you are planning to 
work on this issue in the future if it is still an issue.

Another oddness I experience

That's OK.

I don't speak Kerberos myself but someone once reported [0] that an
earlier version of my password expiry patch [1] worked with Kerberos on an
earlier version of OpenSSH when PATH_PASSWD_PROGRAM was set to
"kinit".

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.

I have tried this and I am still get the same behaviour. keyboard 
interactive fails and I wonder if ssh actually understands at all what PAM 
is getting back from kerberos.

Sure .. press escape in Lotus puts your message into the outbox and sends 
message (!!)

Thanks so much for looking into this. Unfortunately your patch did not 
work. I had to actually apply it manually. In meantime I also tried to 
swith privsep off, but this did not help either. Any special debugging I 
can send you?

I have narrowed the issue down to be very likley a pam_krb5 issue with the 
version running on RH  ES2.1 and will do some more work on that side. I 
think I am getting closer .......



Thanks for the help
