Is Kerberos authentication supported in Cisco terminal servers?  If
not, does anyone know if there are plans to provide this feature in
a future firmware release?  How soon?

Are there other terminal servers that support Kerberos authentication?

At this time we're not concerned about private messages.  The issue
at hand is sending passwords over the net in the clear.  (Passwords
going over the RS-232 connection is also a concern, but the net goes
to more places.)

Thanks for any information.
