I was wondering if anyone out there could point me in the right
direction. I'm looking for a decent how to on using postgresql's built
in kerberos support to authenticate against windows 2003 active
directory. I was trying to use pam_ldap, but had to give up and decide
on using kerberos instead. Any help what so ever is much appreciated.
Thanks.

If you're willing to use a pam-based solution it might be easier/simpler
to set up libpam-krb5 to talk to AD (which I believe there's a fair bit
of documentation for) and then have PG use PAM. Otherwise, it depends
on what your client is, exactly, as to the difficulty getting the
built-in kerberos support interacting correctly with AD.

Thanks,
