Hi,
      I am trying to allow students in the Mac lab to authenticate at the 
login prompt to Kerberos using LDAP.  I followed the instructions on 
various web sites but the only way that I was able to log in with a valid 
kerberos username and password was if I created a local account with the 
same short uid name.

I would like to avoid having to create local accounts and allow any student 
who has a valid keberos username and password to be able to login. We are 
not using AFS. Is there another way do this?  I would appreciate any help 
you can provide. Thank you in advance and I look forward to hearing from you.
