This is a new release mostly to test my debian upload skills... Noteworthy changes since the last version:
** Use gettext 0.17. ** Update gnulib files. GSSLib is an implementation of the Generic Security Service Application Program Interface (GSS-API). GSS-API is used by network servers to provide security services. For example, GSS can be used to authenticate a client against SMTP or IMAP servers. GSS consists of a library, a manual, and a command line tool for debugging purposes. While written to be flexible with regards to different GSS mechanisms, the only currently supported mechanism is Kerberos 5 via GNU Shishi. Mutual and non-mutual authentication, as client and server, is supported. Message privacy protection using DES and 3DES is supported. GSS aims to be internationalized, thread safe and portable. GSS is written in ANSI/ISO C89, and has been ported to numerous platforms, even cross compiled to embedded platforms such as Motorola Coldfire. Current work items include implementing more GSS mechanisms, possibly supporting MIT Kerberos 5 or Heimdal (thus making it possible to change GSS-API implementation after compile-time, through a configuration file), dynamically loaded mechanisms using dlopen, message privacy using AES, message integrity support, and evaluation of implementation suitability of CCM-BIND. Assistance is appreciated on any of these (or other) items. Improving GSS is costly, but you can help! We are looking for organizations that find GSS useful and wish to contribute back. You can contribute by reporting bugs, improve the software, or donate money or equipment. Commercial support contracts for GSS are available, and they help finance continued maintenance. Simon Josefsson Datakonsult, a Stockholm based privately held company, is currently funding GSS maintenance. We are always looking for interesting development projects.
