I have some older applications which use getpwnam/getspnam to get the password 
and compare it with a provided password.  

I am in the process to move to ldap for authorization and Kerberos for 
authentication. Unfortunatly for this application I need to use userpassword 
entry on the ldap server. I think I setup everything correctly, but when I do a 
getspnam call for a user who resides in ldap I get always *NP* as password. I 
captured the ldap traffic (after disabling SSL) and can see that the ldap 
server returns the userpassword entry. 

So why does getspnam not use it ? It seemsto work fine for NIS users.

Thank you
Markus
