I read a fair amount of the functionality of ldap and krb5 and how they work in unison.
So in a nutshell. Krb5 do the authentication and ldap give the information and who can access what.
My question is more on troubleshooting. I encounter the following situation and I want to deduce the meaning of it.
1) Ldap working , Krb5 not working: Was able to ssh.
2) Ldap working, krb5 not working: Wasn't able to ssh
3) Ldap not working, krb5 working: able to ssh
4) ldap not working. krb5 working: wasn't able to ssh.
I've encounter the four situation countless of times and i am confused. My assumption is, as long as krb5 is not working I shouldn't be able to ssh unless; I create an account locally in the machine which I didn't.

you have a small typo at 2 ("woring" instead of working). If I fix it, it will have to go through the review queue, so you may want to fix it yourself. – lzam – 2015-06-08T21:41:41.617
