I hope someone can help me on this one.
I fetched the MIT kerberos version 4 patchlevel 10 from aeneas.mit.edu.
I compiled it and installed it on two SUN workstations (one SLC and one
SparcStation 1+).
They seem to be getting along quite well, but here's the catch:
We are testing a PC/TCP package by FTP software, release 2.11, which includes
kerberos version 4 it is said.
However, when I ask my Kerberos server to let me identify myself it sends
back a packet (with my name in it) which as far as I can suspect must hold
my ticket and my password; the Kerberos server doesn't complain, but then I
don't know who should be complaining. My PC continues by asking me for my
password, which gets rejected although it is correct.
Am I having a PC/TCP problem, or am I just having a 'DES outside the USA'
problem.
What we would like to have is some PC/IP package containing applications
like Rlogin or telnet, secured by Kerberos WITH ENCRYPTION !!!
Any encryption will do, as long as all Kerberos's will be able to cooperate
(which, as long as the American government keeps sitting on DES, will be hard
to accomplish I'm afraid).
Anyone have any experience or knowledge about these matters?
