Does anyone know of any way to build a UNIX password file, complete
with encrypted passwords from the kerberos and protection databases
kept on the AFS servers?  What I'd like to do is to switch our machines
over to use AFS (Kerberos) as the primary means of password
maintainance and authentication.  The problem is, we have several types
of systems for which we don't have a working login program that will
authenticate with AFS.

We need such a program so we can continue to have a common pw file,
and use kerberos as the primary means of password authentication.
