Hi, I have searched through the main mailing list archives and not come up with anything that seems even partially relevant except perhaps a recent email regarding LSA which did not seem to address my exact question. Is it possible for Cygwin to include a kerberos implementation (MIT or Heimdal, for instance) along with kerberos support compiled into the main openssh package? Are there any issues here that I'm not aware of? I've tried to compile the MIT package a couple of times without success but I don't know how much work it would be to get it going? I am aware of several scientists in my field (particle physics research) who rely on Cygwin and their old method of "getting around" was a one-off compile of a very old version of ssh that now does not talk to modern sshd servers properly provided by someone on an as-is basis several years ago. The currently-packaged openssh would work just fine if it were compiled with a set of kerberos libraries. Any help or suggestions for alternatives or existing documentation gratefully received. Thanks, Chris Green. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
