Hi,
I was trying out Kerberos authentication with som sample users for
Dovecot and stumbled into this problem:
The user names are of the form local-part at domain, so the Kerberos
principal becomes "local-part\@domain at REALM".
But it seems Dovecot (1.2.9) doesn't understand that syntax.
Looking at the 2.0.8 sources I guess it's not supported.
But isn't this a valid Kerberos principal?
Is it a bug, or a missing feature or is there a special reason for not
supporting it ?
kind regards,
Peter
