Shishi is an implementation of the Kerberos 5 network authentication system. Shishi can be used to authenticate users in distributed systems. Shishi is part of a GNU system.
* Version 0.0.38 (released 2009-02-26) ** libshisa: Use libtool -export-symbols-regex to fix exported namespace. ** doc: Change license on the manual to GFDLv1.3+. ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v1.8. ** More compiler warnings enabled, and many warnings fixed. ** API and ABI modifications: No changes since last version. Shishi contains a library ('libshishi') that can be used by application developers to add support for Kerberos 5. Shishi contains a command line utility ('shishi') that is used by users to acquire and manage tickets (and more). The server side, a Key Distribution Center (KDC), is implemented by 'shishid', and support X.509 authenticated TLS via GnuTLS. Of course, a manual documenting usage aspects as well as the programming API is included. Shishi currently supports AS/TGS exchanges for acquiring tickets, pre-authentication, the AP exchange for performing client and server authentication, and SAFE/PRIV for integrity/privacy protected application data exchanges. The DES, 3DES, ARCFOUR, and AES cryptographic algorithms are supported. Shishi aims to be internationalized, thread safe and portable. Shishi is written in ANSI/ISO C89, and has been ported to numerous platforms, including most major Unix platforms and Windows, running on devices including iPAQ handhelds and S/390 mainframes. Shishi can also be cross compiled to Microsoft Windows using mingw32 and embedded platforms such as the Motorola Coldfire. Current work items include improvements on the server (KDC), integration of initial authentication via OpenPGP using GnuTLS, set-passwd implementation, and a LDAP backend for the Shisa library used in the KDC for information storage. Assistance is appreciated on any of these (or other) items. Known problems in this release: ** Libgcrypt is required since the gnulib crypto code-path has regressed since the last few releases. This will hopefully be fixed in the future. Improving Shishi is costly, but you can help! We are looking for organizations that find Shishi useful and wish to contribute back. You can contribute by reporting bugs, improve the software, or donate money or equipment. Commercial support contracts for Shishi are available, and they help finance continued maintenance. Simon Josefsson Datakonsult AB, a Stockholm based privately held company, is currently funding Shishi maintenance. We are always looking for interesting development projects. See http://josefsson.org/ for more details.
