The kadmin backend is written in Perl and requires the Perl Expect
module. The Heimdal version also requires the IPC::Run module. The MIT
- version (kadmin-backend) calls the MIT Kerberos v5 kadmin and kpasswd
+ version (kadmin-backend) calls the MIT Kerberos kadmin and kpasswd
programs and therefore requires that they be available. The Heimdal
version similarly requires kpasswd, but uses the Perl module
Heimdal::Kadm5 for kadmin operations and requires it be installed. For
instance of remctl should be run with the KRB5_KTNAME environment
variable set, pointing it at the keytab for this designated principal.

+ Before building the passwd_change client, you will want to modify the
settings at the top of the passwd_change.c code to point it to the
- correct server and port and to use the correct designated principal for
- the password changing service. (If you don't, you'll have to always
- have appropriate configuration in your krb5.conf file.) Then, run:

searched by your compiler. If the the krb5-config script first in your
path is not the one corresponding to the Kerberos libraries you want to
use or if your Kerberos libraries and includes aren't in a location
- searched by default by your compiler, you need to specify

+ searched by default by your compiler, you need to specify a different
+ Kerberos installation root via --with-krb5=PATH. For example:
- ./configure --with-kerberos=/usr/pubsw
+ ./configure --with-krb5=/usr/pubsw
- As with remctl, you can use --with-krb5-lib and --with-krb5-include to
- specify the paths to the library and include directories separately,
- although this is only necessary (or used) if a krb5-config script can't
- be found.
+ You can also individually set the paths to the include directory and the
+ library directory with --with-krb5-include and --with-krb5-lib. You may
+ need to do this if Autoconf can't figure out whether to use lib, lib32,
+ or lib64 on your platform.
To specify a particular krb5-config script to use, either set the
PATH_KRB5_CONFIG environment variable or pass it to configure like:
krb5-config script on your path, set PATH_KRB5_CONFIG to a nonexistent
path:
- ./configure KRB5_CONFIG=/nonexistent
+ ./configure PATH_KRB5_CONFIG=/nonexistent
+
+ krb5-config is not used and library probing is always done if either
+ --with-krb5-include or --with-krb5-lib are given.
You can build kadmin-remctl in a different directory from the source if
you wish. To do this, create a new empty directory, cd to that
shared library migrations more difficult. If none of the above made any
sense to you, don't bother with this flag.
