I know unencrypted dial-up access to a kerberized system means I'm already
damned. So it goes. Unfortunately, I've been given OpenVision Kerberos 5
running on a SPARC 5 and a second SPARC 5 running Solaris 2.4/5 and a 3Com
Access Control Server, and told to work it out. The 3Com stuff works with
OSF DCE and needs an HP server to do that.
