All rights reserved. Please see the file named NOTICE for additional notices. Documentation ------------- Unified documentation for Kerberos V5 is available in both HTML and PDF formats. The table of contents of the HTML format documentation is at doc/html/index.html, and the PDF format documentation is in the doc/pdf directory. Additionally, you may find copies of the HTML format documentation online at https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-latest/doc/ for the most recent supported release, or at https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-devel/doc/ for the release under development. More information about Kerberos may be found at https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/ and at the MIT Kerberos Consortium web site https://kerberos.org/ Building and Installing Kerberos 5 ---------------------------------- Build documentation is in doc/html/build/index.html or doc/pdf/build.pdf. The installation guide is in doc/html/admin/install.html or doc/pdf/install.pdf. If you are attempting to build under Windows, please see the src/windows/README file. Reporting Bugs -------------- Please report any problems/bugs/comments by sending email to krb5-bugs@mit.edu. You may view bug reports by visiting https://krbdev.mit.edu/rt/ and using the "Guest Login" button. Please note that the web interface to our bug database is read-only for guests, and the primary way to interact with our bug database is via email. PAC transitions --------------- Beginning with release 1.20, the KDC will include minimal PACs in tickets instead of AD-SIGNEDPATH authdata. S4U requests (protocol transition and constrained delegation) must now contain valid PACs in the incoming tickets. Beginning with release 1.21, service ticket PACs will contain a new KDC checksum buffer, to mitigate a hash collision attack against the old KDC checksum. If only some KDCs in a realm have been upgraded across versions 1.20 or 1.21, the upgraded KDCs will reject S4U requests containing tickets from non-upgraded KDCs and vice versa. Triple-DES and RC4 transitions ------------------------------ Beginning with the krb5-1.21 release, the KDC will not issue tickets with triple-DES or RC4 session keys unless explicitly configured using the new allow_des3 and allow_rc4 variables in [libdefaults]. To facilitate the negotiation of session keys, the KDC will assume that all services can handle aes256-sha1 session keys unless the service principal has a session_enctypes string attribute. Beginning with the krb5-1.19 release, a warning will be issued if initial credentials are acquired using the des3-cbc-sha1 encryption type. Beginning with the krb5-1.21 release, a warning will also be issued for the arcfour-hmac encryption type. In future releases, these encryption types will be disabled by default and eventually removed. Beginning with the krb5-1.18 release, all support for single-DES encryption types has been removed.
