MIT extracted keytab not compatible with Heimdal kinit client...

[Dyer, Rodney]

Hi,

We are running a Linux / MIT kdc and have extracted a user keytab.  It appears that this keytab format is not compatible with a Heimdal client "kinit".  Is there a way to "convert" a MIT keytab format to what is needed for use by Heimdal?  Or the question should really be what is the correct way of dealing with a Heimdal client service script that needs automated "authentication" when our KDCs are all MIT based?

Thanks,

Rodney
