What do you mean "stopped working"?
Was this when compiling, installing or running zephyr? Did you get any
errors?
I am not familiar with zephyr. Does it compile against kerberos4kth
(obsolete) or Heimdal (current)?
The program executes just fine as it links against libkrb4.so.2,
libdes425.so.3, and libkrb5.so.3 (from the MIT libraries). The problem
is that the zephyr protocol uses Kerberos 4 keys for authentication.
Since the new Heimdal will not get Kerberos 4 keys the zephyr client can
not authenticate and runs unauthenticated.
I'm sure there are a few other people that are running similar legacy
programs that depend on getting Kerberos 4 keys. Would it be possible
to make a heimdal-clients-krb4 version or something that has krb4
support enabled?
Thanks,
-Peter
