My understanding is that the MIT kadmin protocol is based GSS-API
authenticated RPC which FreeBSD didn't support until recently. I added
working RPCSEC_GSS to our userland RPC library in 2008 and it should be
available in FreeBSD 8.x and later. In theory, if MIT actually document
their protocol, it should be reasonably straightforward to support it. I
doubt if I will be able to do the work either for this or for upgrading
heimdal.
