This package contains a Python extension module which provides access
to Kerberos V5.
The documentation is located in the doc/ directory as LaTeX source.
Requirements
------------
This package requires that Kerberos V5 and Python 1.5 be installed in
order to build and use the software. Without these, of course, this
package isn't interesting anyway.
Building the extension
----------------------
1. Copy the file Setup.in to Setup.
2. Edit the definitions of KRB5INCLUDE and KRB5LIB in the file
Setup to point to the right directories in your installation of
Kerberos V5.
3. Run "make".
4. Run "make install".
Using the extension
-------------------
Read the examples in the samples/ directory to see how the modules
provided with this extension may be used. Read the documentation for
detailed information on the interfaces provided.
If you have problems with this software
---------------------------------------
If you find problems or limitations of the software, please send us a
note describing the problem or limitation. If you think any of the
interfaces should be changed, or if additional interfaces would make
the software more useful, please let us know that as well.
These modules have been tested against Kerberos V5 1.0.5 on Sun
UltraSPARC hardware running Solaris 2.6.
