Thanks a lot for the info. I was going to patch krb5_get_host_realm() in get_host_realm.c.

Hi Fred,

Do you mean that you want to alter how Heimdal resolves servers given
a realm?

I don't know about the new plugin code but I have found that replacing
lib/krb5/krbhst.c:srv_find_realm with my own implementation works
quite well since the data structures involved are isolated and
non-complicated.
