I have FreeBSD-6.1 and it appears the default installation has a full
complement of Kerberos5. But, /usr/src/kerberos5/README states:
This subtree is world-exportable, as it does not contain any
cryptographic code.
At the time of writing, it did not even contain source code, only
Makefiles and headers.
Please maintain this "exportable" status quo.
Thanks!

I'm guessing the README is a bit out-of-date...
The HANDBOOK suggests more needs to be obtained from the
security/heimdal port.
I see all the libraries in /usr/lib etc., so which is it... do we have a
full install as a part of 6.1 or is the security/heimdal still needed to
bring it up to speed.

This was originally done to make it easier to separate exportable and non-exportable parts of the tree. Since export controls are no longer an issue, the contents of crypto should probably move into contrib, and the Makefiles in kerberos5 and secure should be distributed in other parts of the tree (lib, usr.bin, usr.sbin etc.). Doing so would be hard on the repo, though (it would grow by approximately 100 MB, or about 7%, overnight). DES -- Dag-Erling Sm?rgrav - des@des.no
