Proposal: Support for 32 bit version numbers in keytabs

[Kiran Kumar]

The HP's Kerberos Client is based on 1.3.5. AFAIK there still seem to be 
quite a lot of customers using DCE.

They're all different, and the only one that I can speak definitively on is OpenVMS.  The currently shipping OpenVMS code is based on MIT Kerberos 1.2.6, with additional security fixes.  A port of 1.3.x is underway.  The HP-UX Kerberos documentation on their web site does appear to indicate that it's still based on 1.2.2.  I've been unable to find similar information for Tru64 Kerberos.

OpenVMS DCE, based on The Open Group's release 1.2.2, is still being used by a number of our customers, and is still being supported as of today.  Last I knew, Entegrity (used to be Gradient) was still supporting DCE on other platforms as well.  OK, I'll admit it... I used to be the DCE Project Leader for OpenVMS until a couple of years ago.  :-)
