We are setting up kerberos authentication for Ohio University 
and need to know what limits exist for length of passwords and logins.
We are thinking of using strings up to 14 characters long that must 
remain unique, so if kerberos truncates before 14 characters we're 
going to run into trouble.

Any help with this will be appreciated.
