Name        : pam_krb5
Product     : Fedora 16
Version     : 2.3.13
Release     : 1.fc16
URL         : https://fedorahosted.org/pam_krb5/
Summary     : A Pluggable Authentication Module for Kerberos 5
Description :
This is pam_krb5, a pluggable authentication module that can be used with
Linux-PAM and Kerberos 5. This module supports password checking, ticket
creation, and optional TGT verification and conversion to Kerberos IV tickets.
The included pam_krb5afs module also gets AFS tokens if so configured.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update corrects the failure to delete a second credential cache which could happen when sshd used password-based authentication mechanisms, and skips the creation of a redundant credential cache when one was already provided by the calling application, allowing the module to better interact with versions of sshd which support delegation of fresh credentials while rekeying.
