The way we did this was to 'trojan-horse' the login program on our most
popular host so that over a period of several months, it shoved most of
the relevant people into the kerberos database.  This was done by
invoking the krb5_edit program during login.  It was a crude hack but
it did the job.

No, I can't provide the source, because it's a hack to login.c, which
is different on nearly every platform.  Sorry.
