Subject: Using DCE secd as a Kerberos 5 KDC

Hello, 

Short question.  Has anyone actually done this?  I am aware of the OSF RFC 92.0
January 1996 that describes the intent to provide interoperability in DCE 1.2.2
(and support berkeley r commands - yeah!).  But has anyone done it with
existing DCE products.  If so what DCE server product did you use (I have
access to AIX, HP, and NT servers), and did you have to make any changes while
building the Kerberos clients (I'm using the MIT 5b5 distribution).

Along these lines, I am very interested in the ability to use a MIT V5 
KDC as a secd.  Rich Salz alluded to this possibility in his talk on
new OSF DCE features at DECORUM last week.  Can anyone confirm that
we'll be able to use our existing KDC (with those 90,000 passwords
that 90,000 people already know) with a DCE cell (in 1.2.1, according
to Rich)? Perhaps we'll have to upgrade to a later beta release of
V5 KDC?
