Subject: Kerberos to drop support for kadmind4 and v5passwdd
Message-ID: <20031007203731.E6FF0151D9B@konishi-polis.mit.edu>
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
MIt is announcing the end-of-life for two Kerberos administration
services. These services will continue to be provided in the 1.3.x
versions of MIT Kerberos, but will not appear in future versions of
Kerberos.
The first service is the v5passwdd service. This service allows
certain old terminal servers to change their password. When we asked
for feedback from the Kerberos community, no one was using this
service who could not use the more modern Kerberos password changing
protocol to accomplish the same goal. The corresponding v5passwd
client will also be end-of-lifed. The more modern kpasswd client and
kadmin utility will continue to be supported.
In addition, MIT is announcing the end-of-life for the kadmind4
server. This server provided backward compatibility so that Kerberos
4 administration clients could submit administration requests to a MIT
Kerberos 5 administration server. Because of the code quality and the
relative scarcity of version 4 administration clients, we will no
longer support this functionality beyond the 1.3.x versions of
Kerberos.

Subject: New Kerberos for Macintosh ships with Mac OS X 10.3
Message-ID:
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
The MIT Kerberos Development team is pleased to announce that as part
of its ongoing collaboration with Apple, Mac OS X 10.3 ("Panther")
ships with another new version of Kerberos for Macintosh pre-installed.
Improvements in Kerberos for Macintosh 5.0 include a redesigned and
streamlined Kerberos Login dialog with GUI for getting addressless and
renewable tickets, krb5 1.3.1, KDC binaries and utilities now
included, support for DNS lookups of KDCs, improved Windows
interoperability, and an updated Kerberos application with improved
appearance and performance and support for new KfM features.
For more details about new features and changes in the Mac OS X 10.3
version of Kerberos, see:
For all problems, questions, and suggestions regarding Kerberos on Mac
OS X, you should contact Apple Computer. They will relay questions to
MIT as necessary.

Subject: Mac OS X Kerberos Extras updated for Mac OS X 10.3
Message-ID:
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Just a reminder to coincide with today's release of Mac OS X 10.3
("Panther"), the MIT Kerberos team has released an updated version of
the Mac OS X Kerberos Extras that work with both Mac OS X 10.2
(Jaguar) and Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther).
The Mac OS X Kerberos Extras allow CFM-based applications, such as
Eudora and Fetch, to work with OS X's built-in Kerberos.
Older releases of the OS X Kerberos Extras will not work with Mac OS X
10.3. You must have the latest release (which was released back in
June) for it to work with Panther. However, this new release is
backwards compatible with Mac OS X 10.2 as well as supporting 10.3.
For further information and to download the updated Mac OS X Kerberos
Extras, go to:
