It exports all of the generic GSSAPI functions. It only has one underlying mechanism, but the MIT code is structured so that you could add additional ones. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
