I'll see what I can do.  In the meantime, the hawk RPM from OBS does 
install and run on top of SLE HA (i.e. works for me), but obviously any 
RPMs that aren't in the official update channel aren't officially 
supported by SUSE.  All us clustering types being paranoid by nature, if 
in doubt, I'd suggest trying it out on a test cluster first :)

Everything else using LDAP auth (e.g. pam_ldap, apache mod_authnz_ldap, LDAP plugins to various CMSes/Wikis/issue trackers, etc.) is fine with both "adaugherity" and "ADaugherity" but hawk/crm_gui require the mixed-case version.

Noted.  I'm not sure what's going on there yet...
