We're in the process of upgrading our modem service, one aspect of which will
be to introduce authentication, ie, every user will have to provide a username
and password before they can connect.
The terminal servers we are considering offer a variety of mechanisms for
doing this - TACACS, Kerberos, etc.
However, a number offer Kerberos only. We don't have any experience here with
Kerberos, and don't really want (ie, haven't got the time) to go into the
whole of Project Athena.
Is there a stand-alone Kerberos server that one can just retrieve and make?
I'm interested in Kerberos for OSF if possible, but for other versions of unix
(eg, SunOS) would be ok (in fact desirable for a backup server).
