GSSAPI is the authentication mechanism of choice, and it's working fine.

Here is what I'm trying to accomplish.

'user1' == 'user1' and 'user1(at)A(dot)DOMAIN(dot)TLD' == 'user1'.

From reading the docs, this is done via the pg_ident.conf file, and from reading the logs, there is
a problem with my map.

Hmm... Interesting thought.
*testing*
It sort of works. Setting the maps below maps the users straight across. 'user1' == 'user1' and
'user1(at)A(dot)DOMAIN(dot)TLD' == 'user1(at)A(dot)DOMAIN(dot)TLD', so it's partially working.

pg_indent.conf:
testnet /^([0-9A-Za-z_-]+)@A\.DOMAIN\.TLD$ \1
testnet /^([0-9A-Za-z_-]+)@A\.DOMAIN\.TLD$ \1(at)A(dot)DOMAIN(dot)TLD

If it's not possible, that's fine. I'm just wondering if it can be done. I might be misunderstanding
the docs or expecting too much. I'm not quite sure which it is, but it does seem like this should be
possible.

Let me know if I can clear anything else up.
