Since kth-krb -is written in ANSI C it is necessary to specify the name of the compiler -to be used and the required switch to make it ANSI compliant. This is -most easily done when running configure using the `env' command. For -instance to build under HP-UX using the native compiler do: - - datan$ env CC="cc -Ae" ./configure - -In general `gcc' works. The following combinations have also been -verified to successfully compile the distribution: - -`HP-UX' - `cc -Ae' - -`Digital UNIX' - `cc -std1' - -`AIX' - `xlc' - -`Solaris 2.x' - `cc' (unbundled one) - -`IRIX' - `cc' - -Linux problems --------------- - -Some systems have lost `/usr/include/ndbm.h' which is necessary to -build kth-krb correctly. There is a `ndbm.h.Linux' right next to the -source distribution. - -There has been reports of non-working `libdb' on some Linux -distributions. If that happens, use the `--without-berkeley-db' when -configuring. - -HP-UX problems --------------- - -The shared library `/usr/lib/libndbm.sl' doesn't exist on all systems. -To make problems even worse, there is never an archive version for -static linking either. Therefore, when building "truly portable" -binaries first install GNU gdbm or Berkeley DB, and make sure that you -are linking against that library. - -Cray problems -------------- - -`rlogind' won't work on Crays until `forkpty()' has been ported, in the -mean time use `telnetd'. - -AIX problems ------------- - -`gcc' version 2.7.2.1 has a bug which makes it miscompile -`appl/telnet/telnetd/sys_term.c' (and possibily `appl/bsd/forkpty.c'), -if used with too much optimization. - -C2 problems ------------ - -The programs that checks passwords works with `passwd', OTP, and -Kerberos paswords. This is problem if you use C2 security (or use some -other password database), that normally keeps passwords in some obscure -place. If you want to use Kerberos with C2 security you will have to -think about what kind of changes are necessary.
