Kerberos, openssh, pam, and Solaris8

Hi,
I have downloaded OpenSSH_3.2.2p1 and Kerberos 5.1.2.5 to attempt my chance
to use kerberos with ssh on solaris 8. The result is negative. It seems
this time, the credential in /tmp is created with a correct name, i.e.
krb5cc_(user's UID). But it's still owned by root. As a result, you can
only gain access once with your password on Kerberos server (in my case, on
domain controller).
I then tried to use pam_krb5 at http://www.sourceforge.net. But I could not
get it compiled. When I did "./configure --with-krb5=/usr/local/kerberos",
I receive the following error message:
checking for krb5_init_context in -lkrb5... no
configure: error: libkrb5 not found! Please use --with-krb5 to specify an
alternate basedir
Jason of UofW has mentioned in his previous email that he has raised a
request of fixing pam_krb5 module with Sun engineers. Whoever gets a fix
for this, please share it with everyone in the mailing list.
Any hints and helps would be appreciated,
Suchun

pam_krb5_migrate is a stackable module that only provides (as the name
suggests) a migration path to Kerberos -- it does not provide
Kerberos authentication services. The module you're looking for is indeed
called 'pam_krb5', and should be downloaded from sourceforge using cvs
using the commands listed in the original message. If you don't have cvs
on your system, perhaps someone else who uses Solaris will be able to tell
you where to find it.
