GSSAPI is what provides Kerberos V, yes?  I've asked about this on the
list a couple of times.  I've seen other people ask about it.  Kerberos
networks are hardly rare, and becoming more common.  Linux boxes in a
WinY2k domain are almost certainly using Kerberos V.  Please consider
this requested.  Evolution is the only app that I actually have to enter
a password (beyond gdm of course) to access stuff.
