Kerberos *usage* doco

[Enrique Rodriguez <en...@gmail.com>]

I have a question for the community about Kerberos documentation.  I
have a pile of Kerberos doco in Confluence at Safehaus and in a
personal Confluence repo.  Some of this doco is about *using*
Kerberos; that is to say, independent of the Kerberos implementation,
be it MIT, Active Directory, or Apache Kerberos.  For example, using
Kerberos for authentication with 'ssh' or 'smbclient'.

Now that we have Confluence for the Directory project, I'm wondering
if it would be desirable at Directory as part of a general Kerberos
doco effort or if it is too tangential to the specific Kerberos
implementation we have here.  In short, should I move it over to the
Directory project?  My feeling is that, as a means to building general
Kerberos community, it should be moved over.  Thoughts?

Yes, but we talked about an INTEROP Confluence Space at Safehaus,
containing doco about "using Safehaus Triplesec as the realm
controller."  You can see the Space you created, here:

http://docs.safehaus.org/display/INTEROP/Home

However, with TripleSec being rolled in to Directory, it makes sense
to also move this doco to Directory.

This should have been done over 6 months ago when we got the confluence 
instance.

Thanks, Christine.  That was helpful feedback.

Hi Enrique,

I moved over the whole protocol providers doco including the Kerberos
stuff to the cwiki directory sandbox space a while ago. I would like
to see it becoming part of the Advanced User's Guide
(http://cwiki.apache.org/DIRxSRVx10/apacheds-v10-advanced-users-guide.html)
 and it would be great if you could overwork and expand it a bit.

regards

Christine
