Bill,
geez thanx for the flame..
Rutgers has their own library that handles this (They rebuilt all of their
password checking programs to handle it)
If they had just gone with principals that match the username.. sigh..
I am probably going to wait for MIT v5 b6 and go from there... (since
login.krb5 is broken)
