     Hello all, me again...This time I'm wondering if anyone out there
   has had any luck with krb5 telnet under Linux.

     I'm running a 1.09 kernel on my Linux box.  I built k5b4.2 with no
   difficulty, I can get tickets, I can telnet *into* the Linux box (from
   a Sparcstation) with krb5 tickets, but trying to telnet *out* of the
   Linux box blows up with a sigsegv in setcommandmode() according to
   gdb.  This happens whether I try to do an authenticated login or just
   a regular old telnet.

It's known to be broken.  We haven't had a chance to go and fix it yet,
though.  It's probably a simple porting bug that hasn't yet been fixed.
