Isn't it possible to open the socket, try GSSAPI handshaking with protocol, and fall back to krb5 protocol if that fails? If that's not possible, how about handling it like we handle postgres protocol 3 vs 2? Connect using GSSAPI first, and if that fails, retry with krb5. -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
