Hello List,

I am working on a project that combines a number of different open- 
source libraries, all of which utilize some form of the same  
cryptographic operations, most notably symmetric ciphers, hashes, and  
public key cryptography.  The core of this project uses a FIPS- 
certified OpenSSL codebase.

The problem with combining open-source projects is that they seem to  
all come with their own implementation of crypto algorithms.

I haven't completely analyzed MIT Kerberos, but I was wondering if it  
would be possible to get the MIT Kerberos subsystem to use the OpenSSL  
crypto API for any cryptographic support needed for Kerberos?

I'm assuming that MIT Kerberos has not been FIPS certified.

Thanks!
Randy
