I've noticed that in the 1.4 series this no longer exists...

It's still in our tree, and linked into the programs that access the Kerberos database directly, but we're no longer installing it. We don't want to be in the business of supporting a general-purpose database package.


What we're (still) using is an old version of the Berkeley/Sleepycat database package, with some bug fixes. (We can't update because of licensing issues.) You might want to check the Sleepycat web site, and/or look up the BDB sources in your favorite open-source OS distribution.

Or, you could tweak the Kerberos sources to install the db library on your system ... but if you run into problems with db unrelated to its use in the KDC and related programs we ship, we don't support it.
