Thanks!  I don't suppose you have a version of this already pre-compiled
though, do you? :-/  (I was hoping to go though my entire life being able
to say that I never compiled a program for any MicroSoft operating system,
but I guess that won't be the case, sigh).

What is the compiler used to build the NT version of Kerberos?  (I'm afraid
I don't know much about PC development environemnts).
