I've put out a preliminary port of the kerberos v. 4 client libraries for
WinNt, based on the BSD 4.4 lite kerberosIV sources. To get the port,

	ftp.cs.cmu.edu
	cd /afs/cs/user/johnmil/ftp
	bin
	get kerbv4nt.zip

Note that you have to do the full 'cd' at once, because of CMU file
protections.

This port has a number of limitations which are detailed in an 00readme.nt file
inside of it. It includes ported sources and binaries for:

	krb.lib
	des.lib
	kinit.exe
	klist.exe

for windows NT 3.5.  Since I used visual C++ 2.0 for Nt to port it, one would
imagine you would need those tools to build it if you want to modify the
sources.

I'll be spiffing up the port sometime later. For now, these libraries should 
suffice for anyone wanting to kerberize their NT app.

I'd tell you all the trials and tribulations I went through trying to port from
other KrbV4 sources (MIT unix, MIT windows, etc.) but I'll spare you and just
recommend that you use the BSDLite sources if you need to port it to any other
platform :)

"official" kerberos release in any way, shape, or form.
