/disclaimer: I'm new to kerberos, I've used S/Key/
What's the point? My understanding of Kerberos is that anyone can
request a TGT from the kerberos security server, but the reply is
going to be encrypted in the users secret key (his password).
Can you decrypt a TGT in your head?
If not then you are going to have to tell the local machine your
password so that it can decrypt the TGT.
What was the purpose of using S/Key instead?
