I saw a message on krbdev from yesterday about this, so I'll bring this
up there. But this begs the question... who's responsible for
maintaining aklog type things.. the kerberos people, or the AFS people??
It seems nobody really wants to maintain it, and users wind up getting
screwed.
If you use Debian or Redhat, it seems to work out just great, but try to
find a 'standard' aklog for windows or macosX, and every university
seems to have a minor variation on the same thing that's subtley broken
in a different way.
aklog should be part of the afs distribution.
aklog for Windows ships as part of OpenAFS for Windows.
there is work being done to add aklog to OpenAFS for UNIX platforms.
Unfortunately, constructing the makefile dependencies is non-trivial.
aklog must be built against the version of kerberos 5 which you are
going to be using. Do you have kerberos 5 headers/libs? If so, what
are they? mit or heimdal or ??? What about platforms such as solaris
which have libs but no headers? What about platforms which do not have
headers or libs?
If you would like to see this integration work go faster, contribute
your time.
