Right, but what the poster was asking, effectively, was how to make the KDC lock out the user after N failed [pre-]authentication attempts. The answer is that an MIT KDC with plain old db2 backend can't do it. An MIT KDC with an LDAP backend could do it, but it doesn't yet. The user should scrape logs on the KDC and lock accounts (principals) accordingly.
