Heimdal is a free implementation of Kerberos 5. The goals are to:
|
|
|
|
|
* have an implementation that can be freely used by anyone
|
|
|
|
|
* be protocol compatible with existing implementations and, if not
|
|
|
|
|
in conflict, with RFC 4120 (and any future updated RFC).
|
|
|
|
|
RFC 4120 replaced RFC 1510.
|
|
|
|
|
* be reasonably compatible with the M.I.T Kerberos V5 API
|
|
|
|
|
* have support for Kerberos V5 over GSS-API (RFC1964)
|
|
|
|
|
* include the most important and useful application programs
|
|
|
|
|
(rsh, telnet, popper, etc.)

|
|
|
* include enough backwards compatibility with Kerberos V4
|
|

|
|
|
|
libcap-ng is an optional dependency.
