Solaris 9 comes with Kerberos already bundled with the OS, including GSSAPI
headers and libraries.   Kerberized applications like telnet, rlogin, 
ftp are
in a separate (but FREE) download from www.sun.com - search for SEAM 1.0.2
(of course, if you prefer to use MIT, then disregard that).


Run ldd on the MIT 'kinit'  to see what libraries it is linking with.  
It should only
be linking against the MIT libraries.

(Also,  since when does 'kinit' need to link with GSSAPI libraries 
anyway?  )
