Similar to TEIID-1610

Postgres clients support authentication via GSSAPI

http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=2&ved=0CB4QFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.postgresql.org%2Fdocs%2F8.4%2Fstatic%2Fauth-methods.html&rct=j&q=psql%20postgres%20gssapi&ei=U5IvTqjnA8HGgAfNsf2UAQ&usg=AFQjCNFk5aQFjpRANRzsgoecZTOavzFH-w&cad=rja

It would be great if teiid's postgres emulation layer would allow it to support GSSAPI as an authentication mechanism from clients.

Server side you could setup a keytab with the correct server side principal postgres/$fqdn at REALM.COM which teiid would use to authenticate clients connecting to it via the postgres emulation layer.
