I've just put on athena-dist.mit.edu:~ftp/pub/kerberos sources for the
program make_srvtab. This is a program which was developed after
Kerberos V4 was released to the world, and we never got around to
actually releasing it.
We actually don't use ext_srvtab any more; it was too slow when the
KDC database gets big. make_srvtab is much faster, but you have to
specify all of the services that you want to use instead of having it
search the database for you. This program may work out better for you,
although I can't see why ext_srvtab is dying when periods are put in the
hostname. What sort of error message are you getting?
