MIT Kerberos 5 beta 7, to be released in the near future, contains a
version of ONC RPC (Sun RPC) that has been extended to support GSS-API
authentication and data protection. Kerberos 5 also contains a
Kerberos implementation of GSS-API, thus the RPC can use Kerberos for
its security. The new KADM5 administration system included in beta 7
uses this RPC for all of its communication.
A conference paper describing the secured ONC RPC and how to use it is
available at <ftp://ftp.cam.ov.com/pub/users/bjaspan/rpc_paper.ps>.
OpenVision donated their implementation of GSS-API, secured ONC RPC,
and KADM5 to MIT for inclusion in Kerberos.
