Has anyone thought to drop pts into ldap? The semantics of pts groups =

should not be that different from groupOfUniqueNames so the schema =

additions should be relatively minor(?) One implementation scenario is to=
 =

drop the pts client altoghether and just keep the pts server as a =

protocol translator into ldap (authenticating to the directory server =

as afs@REALM over GSSAPI perhaps) and do all user and group admin in =

the directory server. I guess DCE must have a schema that kinda does
this but that may not be appropriate for afs.... Comments?

	Cheers Leif
