We are currently evaluating the cost of the implementation of a Kerberos
server in our own server software under NT 4.0.
I already have downloaded the source code for UNIX from the MIT FTP
site, but I would like to know what is currently available under NT. I'm
of course more interested with source code than binaries.
Could you be a bit more explicit about what you're looking for? The NT
Alpha-2 snapshot compiles under NT; the goal is to have a
fully-cross-platform source tree which compiles under Unix, Windows, and
Macintosh. We're fairly close to that, although occasionally the NT and
Windows ports lags the Unix development.
There's also the Cygnus's KerbNet distribution, which does have some
fairly interesting NT support in it (including the KDC on an NT box,
assuming you trust Microsoft's NT OS-level security --- which I don't :-).
