Has anyone successfully run Kerberos in a multi-thread program?
We are trying to link V5 Beta 5 Kerberos library (from MIT) with a
multi-thread application program. According to some hints from the
manual of <<Kerberos V5 application programming library>>, the Kerberos
V5 library might be made thread-safe although it doesn't say how to
make the library thread safe. We compiled and linked the MIT Kerberos
V5 Beta 5 source code as well as our own source code with the option
-mt in a solaris 2.4 platform. However, we couldn't make our
multi-thread program work correctly. We doubt that our V5 library is
thread-safe. We are seeking any advices on thread-safe Kerberos V5
library. Any suggestions on this will be appreciated. Please post
your discussion/answer here.
Thanks in advance.
