[Freeipa-devel] mod_auth_kerb ticket forwarding

Inspired by a patch from the modauthkerb mailing list by Mikkel Kruse 
Johnsen I was able to get kerberos ticket forwarding working on Apache 
with mod_auth_kerb. This needs lots more testing but the basic support 
seems to be working.

Use kinit -f to get a forwardable ticket.

I've attached the source RPM in case anyone wants to spend some time 
with this.

So assuming we have ticket fowarding, how do we want to change the way 
things work in order to use it? Currently the XML-RPC server-side code 
authenticates with a client cert and a special user. I suppose we can do 
away with this and use the user's ticket?

As an aside, I haven't tested this using the PyKerberos client. I'll 
need to try to figure out if it will just "work" or if I need to include 
additional options.
