I apologize for this tangential issue, but somebody has expressed
concern that a Dynamic Link Library type mechanism for the GSS APIs (or
DLLs in general) are not suitable because there is not wide support on
many Unix systems. This is the first time I have heard this concern
and I wanted to make sure we're not going down a road of woe and despair.
Could somebody with experience on the interesting Unix platforms
comment on this concern?
Thanx!
John
