6 This section details how to build and install MIT Kerberos software
12 In order to build Kerberos V5, you will need approximately 60-70
13 megabytes of disk space. The exact amount will vary depending on the
14 platform and whether the distribution is compiled with debugging
17 Your C compiler must conform to ANSI C (ISO/IEC 9899:1990, "c89").
18 Some operating systems do not have an ANSI C compiler, or their
19 default compiler requires extra command-line options to enable ANSI C
22 If you wish to keep a separate build tree, which contains the compiled
23 \*.o file and executables, separate from your source tree, you will
24 need a make program which supports **VPATH**, or you will need to use
25 a tool such as lndir to produce a symbolic link tree for your build
28 Obtaining the software
29 ----------------------
31 The source code can be obtained from MIT Kerberos Distribution page,
32 at http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/dist/index.html.
33 The MIT Kerberos distribution comes in an archive file, generally
34 named krb5-VERSION-signed.tar, where *VERSION* is a placeholder for
35 the major and minor versions of MIT Kerberos. (For example, MIT
36 Kerberos 1.9 has major version "1" and minor version "9".)
38 The krb5-VERSION-signed.tar contains a compressed tar file consisting
39 of the sources for all of Kerberos (generally named
40 krb5-VERSION.tar.gz) and a PGP signature file for this source tree
41 (generally named krb5-VERSION.tar.gz.asc). MIT highly recommends that
42 you verify the integrity of the source code using this signature,
45 tar xf krb5-VERSION-signed.tar
46 gpg --verify krb5-VERSION.tar.gz.asc
48 Unpack krb5-VERSION.tar.gz in some directory. In this section we will assume
49 that you have chosen the top directory of the distribution the directory
52 Review the README file for the license, copyright and other sprecific to the
53 distribution information.
