Kerberos Version 5 Applications, Release 1.0
Release Notes
The MIT Kerberos Team
Introduction
------------
Please refer to the NOTICE file for copyright, license, and
acknowledgement information applying to this package.
This package contains Kerberized versions of telnet, rlogin, rsh, rcp,
and ftp clients and daemons, as well as a terminal login program which
can obtain Kerberos credentials when presented with the user's
password.
These programs are no longer in wide use, having been supplanted in
many environments by OpenSSH, but there is still some interest in
their continued maintenance. These programs were included in the main
Kerberos 5 distribution through release 1.7, but are now packaged
separately.
Building and Installing
-----------------------
This package requires a krb5 installation. If you are using your
operating system's krb5 installation, ensure that the appropriate
development package is installed--in particular, there should be a
program named "krb5-config" in your path. In this case, you can build
the package with:
./configure
make
make install
If you are using your own build of Kerberos, you will have to tell
this package where it is:
./configure --with-krb5=/path/to/krb5
make
make install
You can supply either the krb5 installation's exec-prefix or the path
to the krb5-config program. In either case, you can specify other
options to configure such as the installation prefix; for a list of
possibilities, run:
./configure --help
The daemons in this package are intended to run out of an inetd-like
system. The presence and/or configuration syntax of this system will
vary according to your operating system. If you are using a
traditional inetd daemon, the configuration in /etc/inetd.conf should
look like:
klogin stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/klogind klogind -k -c
eklogin stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/klogind klogind -k -c -e
kshell stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/kshd kshd -k -c -A
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/ftpd ftpd -a
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/telnetd telnetd -a valid
with the pathname /usr adjusted to match your installation prefix (the
default is /usr/local). The service names in the first column must be
present in /etc/services; if the Kerberos services are not present
there, add them as follows:
klogin 543/tcp # Kerberos authenticated rlogin
kshell 544/tcp cmd # and remote shell
eklogin 2105/tcp # Kerberos auth. & encrypted rlogin
