Can anyone point me in the direction of a document describing exactly what
kerberos is and what it does, pretty pictures would be nice too :-)

I'm currently trying to build it for linux.  I'm doing so, because postgres
internal docs said that kerberos was the only way to protect my database from the
net.  

So, I know a little about kerberos, just enough to get confused.



Thanks.

BTW, how to you pronouce kerberos?  And is there a FAQ?


Thankg again.
