Does this mean you're using LDAP for authentication, and looking for  
a way Kerberos programs can use the LDAP setup you've already got?   
That's not how the LDAP backend works; it's for doing authentication  
the Kerberos way, except the database is stored in LDAP.  The data we  
store is entirely different from what LDAP authentication uses; you  
can't just layer one on top of the other.
