Migration doesn't seem to be working. The migration page itself comes up 
fine and prompts for data but when I enter the password of a migrated 
user I don't seem to be getting valid kerberos keys. kinit doesn't work 
in any case. It could also be that I'm tired. Does a migrated account 
work for you?

This could be related to redoing the 389-ds password plugin as I did all 
previous testing before we did the file split.

I think that's ok as long as we provide enough logging to point the 
admin in the right direction.

Yes, that sounds like a good enhancement. Great idea.
