Building Kerberos V5

Kerberos V5 uses a configuration system built using the Free Software Foundation's autoconf program. This system makes Kerberos V5 much simpler to build and reduces the amount of effort required in porting Kerberos V5 to a new platform.

• Organization of the Source Directory: Description of the source tree.
• Build Requirements: How much disk space, etc. you need to build Kerberos.
• Unpacking the Sources: Preparing the source tree.
• Doing the Build: Compiling Kerberos.
• Installing the Binaries: Installing the compiled binaries.
• Testing the Build: Making sure Kerberos built correctly.
• Options to Configure: Command-line options to Configure
• osconf.h: Header file-specific configurations
• Shared Library Support: Building Shared Libraries for Kerberos V5
• OS Incompatibilities: Special cases to watch for.
• Using Autoconf: Modifying Kerberos V5's configuration scripts.
