One more note.  There is updated documentation that is available on
tsx-11.mit.edu, in /pub/tytso/krb5-ss/doc.tar.gz.  We know this
documentation is not perfect, but it's better than what you may have
looked at before.  Take a look at it and tell me what you think!

As far as support goes, you might want to consider going with a Kerberos
Vendor.  Cygnus Support, in particular, has a recent release which is
very close to our soon-to-be-released Beta 6 distribution.  Since they
accept money from their customers, they can afford to give you much
better support than I can do, as well as a more streamlined installation
process.

I hope to be able to improve the documentation in the free distribution,
and if you could help us by proof-reading the install.{texi,info,dvi}
files in the documentation file, I'd greatly appreciate it.  We're going
to be making a beta 6 distribution available soon, and so any comments
you can give us to improve the documentation would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks!!
