I'm trying to solve a problem with integrating
OpenSSH into a Kerberos environment. There are workarounds that can be used for
Solaris and Linux because they have PAM, but it is a major problem under Irix
which lacks that capability. I understand that the directions work efforts
take are strongly dependent upon finding volunteers, but why is the Kerberos
code so obsolete or, at the very least, stagnant? Kerberos 5 has been out for
several years and Kerberos 4 has actually been cracked. Many system admins
were forced to rebuild their existing krb5 distributions to remove krb4
compatibility. Even though RedHat Linux has all the backward compatibility
headers, libs, etc, I'm still unable to build properly and the rpms that are
generally available do not support Kerberos anyway. Not that this would solve
the Irix problem anyway, but at least knowing that the backward compatibility
code was the difference would at least give some options.
