First, please specify by version number the Kerberos you are attempting
to compile.

Second, please indicate whether you are attempting to build KFW or
Kerberos 5 stand alone.

Third, please specify the exact version of the Microsoft SDK you are
using.  (You must use the XP SP2 SDK and no other.)

Note 1: VC++6.0 is not supported for building applications with the XP
SP2 SDK.  Visual Studio .NET 2003 is strongly recommended.

Note 2: By Kerberos Server do you mean a KDC?  If so, be aware that the
Windows platform is only supported for client and application servers 
such as an FTP server.  It does not provide a KDC or administrative 
tools.

Last but not least, is there a reason you cannot use the pre-built
binaries distributed by MIT?
