Hi,
	You should know that while I have compiled Kerberos V5 using the
linux.cf file, I have *not* had the chance to do any sort of testing on
the resulting binaries.  So you should not be too surprised if you have
to put in some patches to make things work.  I'd definitely appreciate
any patches of feedback you have to offer.

	   getting TGT for test1-DEPTH-1
   kdc5_hammer: Cannot find KDC for requested realm while getting initial credentials

This looks like either /krb5/krb.conf (or however you configured the
location of the configuration file) isn't present, or the code is having
troubles reading and/or parsing that file.

	   Also, even though "klist" seems to work OK (I can't
	   really make a valid test), "kinit" complains:

   /home/uri/src/krb5-beta3/clients/kinit> ./kinit
   Password for uri@WATSON.IBM.COM:
   kinit: isode: missing element during translation while getting initial credentials
   /home/uri/src/krb5-beta3/clients/kinit>

This looks much more serious.  Have you built other things using ISODE
8.0 under Linux, and have they worked?  This looks like a bug when
porting ISODE to Linux, which was one of the things I dreaded testing.
After having looked at the sources to MH a long time ago, one of the
last things I want to do is to go crawling around the insides of
ISODE....  :-)
