PATCH: Kerberos password authentication w/o KDC verification
...ys, password authentication fails.
I am sure that verifying the KDC is a good thing to do... But in our
case, it causes difficulties. Verifying the KDC is not consistently
enforced, anyway. So the attached patch provides a way to turn it off.
I have implemented a server configuration option, KerberosVerifyServer,
that defaults to "yes". If it is true, then the KDC is verified, as
currently happens. If it set to "no", then the behaviour I need, of not
verifying the KDC, is provided.
From our point of view, it would be a nice thing if this became a
standard feature of OpenSSH.
