I ftp'd the v5 kerberos source from /pub/kerberos/dist/940615 the
other day. The HOW_TO_BUILD file in the doc subdir refers to a
program called synctree that can be used to simplify building for
multiple hosts. I am unable to find the synctree program in the
specified directory. Is it still available? If so, how can I get it?
Unfortunately, I recently was made aware of some copyright encumberances
over the synctree program, which means we do not have the right to
redistribute its source code. Hence, I was forced to remove the
synctree program.
However, it should no longer be necessary to use the synctree program,
if you have a make program that understands VPATH. Simply make an empty
build directory, cd to it, and run the top level configure program in
the source file: "../src/configure", and it will do the right thing.
If you don't have a make that understands VPATH (and don't want to bring
over and compile gmake), you can also use the lndir program from the X11
distribution.
Good luck!!
