So, I finally had to break down and try to build Kerberos for Win32. I
used the most recent snapshot on athena-dist. The build bombed out fairly
early with the error:
don't know how to make lib\krb5\krb\error_tables\makefile.in
Renaming lib\krb5\krb\ERROR_TA to lib\krb5\krb\error_tables made the
build get farther, but there seemed to be plenty of other errors regarding
files that exceeded the 8x3 filename limit. I noticed that the call
to "zip" when building kerbsrc.tar uses the -k option to change the
pathnames to conform to MS-DOS format ... is that correct? If it is,
should all of the Makefiles already know about the "short" names? There
seems to be such a fundamental problem with the build process, I have
to believe that I'm doing something wrong.
BTW, I'm using VC++ 5.0.
