I am new to kerberos, so please bear with me. If this is a FAQ, or
there is some obvious place to find this information, please gently
point me there, and I will go.

I need to re-write a socket-based application I wrote to use kerberos
for all data transmission. I have poked around in the kstream stuff, which 
looks like what I want, but there is zero documentation on how to use
it. 

I need to have a client authorized, and a full-duplex connection opened.
All data transmissions need to be encrypted. Unfortunately, this client/server
application is interactive, so I'm also worried (a little) about performance,
since initial data transmissions are quite high.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

David
