I am currently planning to deploy Kerberos 4 among several hundred 
machines. I am using the Cygnus release on the following platforms:

	HP-UX 9.1
	AIX 3.2
	DEC OSF/1
	SVR4-i386
	Solaris 2.2
	Linux 1.0
	SunOS 4.1.3
	Ultrix 4.3
	

In the not to distant future, the entire company will be running DCE on
almost all of the HP, IBM RS6000 and Alpha machines. We would like to be 
able to modify the Kerberos-based administrative environment to work
with DCE so that we can get tickets from the DEC secd. That is, we want to
be able to use rlogin, rcp and rsh to get root access to hosts on the net
for the sake of Unix system administration. 

Does anyone have such plans in the work?  Should I be able to simply
compile the Kerberos 5 distribution bsd applications and expect them to
interoperate with the DCE security service?
