Hi,

I see that the "-history" option for "add_policy" (in kadmin) is not
supported when using the LDAP backend for Kerberos [1].

Is there *any* other way to ensure a user doesn't use one of his
previous four keys when changing passwords and the Kerberos database is
in LDAP? I ask because this is apparently a requirement in the PCI DSS
and Card Production standard (section 7.2.2 in the latter), which will
become relevant for us in a few months for a new site we are building.

We normally use the LDAP backend for Kerberos at our existing sites
which works great and allows us, among other things, to leverage
OpenLDAP's mirror-mode replication for high availability instead of
having to run kprop/kpropd via Cron.

I'd like to use LDAP as a Kerberos database at the new site but this
requirement and the missing history support seem like a show stopper.

Any ideas or advice?

Thanks,

Andreas
