Thanks for the reply. I'm a bit confused, though. The how-to doesn't say
anything about either of these options. Actually, I checked a number of
different how-tos and docs and some include them, while others don't.
(??) Also, sorry for my lack of knowledge but realm refers to the
kerberos realm, correct? We don't use kerberos and I was under the
impression that it wasn't necessary, since some docs (such as the one
I'm using) don't mention anything about it.
Thanks for your help,
Jason
