Thanks Sam

  As long as I have you at the end of the line...

  We need Kerberos for authentication of a PPP modem pool on Xyplex hardware.

  Is it reasonable to run two daemons with different configuration files,

  Also, is it possible to replace the DES password encryption with a Unix 
crypt style one?
