Quoting Forrest Aldrich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (from Sun, 11 Jun 2006 12:37:17 -0400):

I have FreeBSD-6.1 and it appears the default installation has a full
complement of Kerberos5.  But, /usr/src/kerberos5/README states:

   This subtree is world-exportable, as it does not contain any
   cryptographic code.

   At the time of writing, it did not even contain source code, only
   Makefiles and headers.

   Please maintain this "exportable" status quo.

   Thanks!

I'm guessing the README is a bit out-of-date...

Yes, the USA changed the export restrictions and we're able to export crypto code to the world.

The HANDBOOK suggests more needs to be obtained from the
security/heimdal port.

The port allows you to add support for LDAP, cracklib and builds X11 tools if desired.

I see all the libraries in /usr/lib etc., so which is it... do we have
a full install as a part of 6.1 or is the security/heimdal still needed
to bring it up to speed.

If you don't need the above menioned features, you don't need to install the port.

Bye,
Alexander.
