openldap libmcrypt mcrypt openssl php. Do I need kerberos????

Hi! Do I need kerberos with openldap and PHP or is it enough with ssl/tls? As I understand the ssl/tls will encrypt the communication between the computers and kerberos will encrypt the password file on the server. If I install mcrypt with libmcrypt, mhash and openssl the result will be the same, or am I wrong? I prefer not to use kerberos since it's so complicated and "buggy" Peter Nyberg ---------------------------------------------------------------- Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics: http://www.dbb.su.se/
