Kerberos Ldap Integration

[Rodrigo Castro]

I guess I haven't made myself clear. In my work environment we have many
labs. Some of them have root priveleges to administrate their own lab. So
with their root account they can become any ldapuser. This is undesirable.
Is there any kerberos/ldap configuration to disable this?
