working krb4
[Synopsis] [RPM]
From the original source web site:
"Kerberos is a system for authenticating users and services on a network. It is built upon the assumption that the network is "unsafe". For example, data sent over the network can be eavesdropped and altered, and addresses can also be faked. Therefore they cannot be used for authentication purposes."
Original source came from:
http://www.pdc.kth.se/kth-krb/
krb4-0.10.1.tar

There are good RPMs for kerberos version 5, however many educational institutions are only compatible with version 4 (and version 4 has its advantages).
