check_kdc

Works well allthough the documentation is pretty lacking. I had to change the path to kinit in the script to:

/usr/bin/kinit

Otherwise it worked out of the box. Great!

Here is a patch to make it authenticate using Kerberos password as well and not just keytab. I have also hard-coded the path for utils.sh as it was in a different location from where I stored this plugin. So modify utils.sh path according to your environment.
