The GOsa->Kerberos sync script is from debian-edu-config, see /usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/gosa-sync. For the first user, there is also /usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/kerberos-kdc-init and /usr/bin/ldap-debian-edu-install. > If GOsa does indeed mishandle spaces, it should definitely warn > against it in the password change interface - and implement checks > to make it impossible for someone to define such a password > unknowingly.
