XMPP & Kerberos 5

Hi,

I'm currently trying to setup an XMPP server with Kerberos 5  
authentication. I've been using eJabberd 2.0.5 with username/password  
authentication for a while. Now, I would like to use Kerberos in order to  
make my services more comfortable with SSO.

Unfortunately, I failed using an GSSAPI patch for eJabberd together with  
my Kerberos system. After that, I tried using Openfire, which didn't work  
out for me either. Now, that I've read about that institution-wide XMPP  
service the MIT offers, I know that XMPP _must_ work with Kerberos  
somehow. Can you tell me how you set it up and, respectively, which  
software you did use?

Thank you in advance!

Yours

O. Schmidt
