I tried both no success.

Right I put this in the common-session file only now no more common-auth.
I can indeed login with pam_krb5 but it creates the ticket cache as
/tmp/krb5cc_$UID_randomstring like this
/tmp/krb5cc_23542_Cdk2d0. which I believe is the default behavior.

So it looks like it is not honouring the pam argument I put in
common-session. I tried both through sshd and gnome and both use
common-session.
I turned on debugging by appending the debug arg to the end of
pam_krb5.so line in common-session but no success.
It must be something simple I am missing.

Thanks again
