Ok. This works so far. I get the same error. But I have the original problem
again - cron, sendmail and sshd seem not to use the hostcreds. I still need a
link from /var/tmp/hostcreds to /tmp/krb5cc_0 to make sshd to work. The build
of nss_ldap seems to find all the necessary files: sasl.h, gssapi.h,
gssapi_krb5.h.

The thing I cannot understand is: why do normal applications find the hostcreds,
but the daemons not? What do they differently?
