Curious. If I read it correctly when I was looking at the MIT distribution for
kerberos stuff, they had the windows winsock version up as well. And, if I
remember right, their kerberos-IV implementation is what is used for a number
of commercial and freeware products, such as the coming-soon-or-already-here
kerberized Eudora for windows.

As well, I have a partial client port of kerberos-IV to Windows NT available.
It includes the libraries you would need to link with, kinit.exe and klist.exe
 A developer with a little savy could probably massage it into something
useful, if they were so inclined.
