Gah - I just finished reading the rest of those
threads, I wish I hadn't.
These people make my head hurt. They're going on
about how if it's *only* compatible with SSPI
on the wire then they're not interested...
MIT doesn't seem to have understood yet that
with *hundreds* of millions of krb5 installations
out there *Microsoft* SSPI on the wire is THE
standard and whatever they are doing is the
trivial irrelevence...
Grrrrr. People who keep trying to ignore
Microsoft implementations of standards are
standing on a rapidly melting ice raft....
