---------------------------------
The source distribution of Kerberos 5 comes in a gzipped tarfile,
-krb5-1.7.tar.gz. Instructions on how to extract the entire
+krb5-1.8.tar.gz. Instructions on how to extract the entire
distribution follow.
If you have the GNU tar program and gzip installed, you can simply do:
- gtar zxpf krb5-1.7.tar.gz
+ gtar zxpf krb5-1.8.tar.gz
If you don't have GNU tar, you will need to get the FSF gzip
distribution and use gzcat:
- gzcat krb5-1.7.tar.gz | tar xpf -
+ gzcat krb5-1.8.tar.gz | tar xpf -
-Both of these methods will extract the sources into krb5-1.7/src and
-the documentation into krb5-1.7/doc.

The Data Encryption Standard (DES) is widely recognized as weak. The
-krb5-1.7 release will contain measures to encourage sites to migrate
-away from using single-DES cryptosystems. Among these is a
-configuration variable that enables "weak" enctypes, but will default
-to "false" in the future. Depending on the outcome of ongoing
-discussion on krbdev at mit.edu, this default could change prior to the
-final release of krb5-1.7.

--------------------
-* Remove support for version 4 of the Kerberos protocol (krb4).
+krb5-1.8 changes by ticket ID
+-----------------------------
-* New libdefaults configuration variable "allow_weak_crypto". NOTE:
- Currently defaults to "false", but may default to "true" in a future
- release. Setting this variable to "false" will have the effect of
- removing weak enctypes (currently defined to be all single-DES
- enctypes) from permitted_enctypes, default_tkt_enctypes, and
- default_tgs_enctypes.
-
-* Client library now follows client principal referrals, for
- compatibility with Windows.
-
-* KDC can issue realm referrals for service principals based on domain
- names.
-
-* Encryption algorithm negotiation (RFC 4537).
-
-* In the replay cache, use a hash over the complete ciphertext to
- avoid false-positive replay indications.
-
-* Microsoft GSS_WrapEX, implemented using the gss_iov API, which is
- similar to the equivalent SSPI functionality.
-
-* DCE RPC, including three-leg GSS context setup and unencapsulated
- GSS tokens.
-
-* NTLM recognition support in GSS-API, to facilitate dropping in an
- NTLM implementation.
-
-* KDC support for principal aliases, if the back end supports them.
-
-* Microsoft set/change password (RFC 3244) protocol in kadmind.
-
-* Master key rollover support.
