I've put a PostScript version of my recent paper "The Evolution of the Kerberos Authentication Service" onto athena-dist.mit.edu (18.71.0.38) for anonymous FTP, from /pub/kerberos/doc/: -rw-r--r-- 1 root 50920 Jun 3 11:24 krb_evol-slides.PS -rw-r--r-- 1 root 140810 Jun 3 11:24 krb_evol.PS This paper was presented at the Spring 1991 EurOpen Conference, in Tromsoe, Norway. ABSTRACT: The Kerberos Authentication Service, developed at MIT, has been widely adopted by other organizations to eliminate the trusted-host problem in open networks. While a step up from traditional security in networked systems, Kerberos version 4 is not sufficiently flexible for some environments. These inflexibilities and the remedies introduced with the Kerberos version 5 are described. Refer entry: %K KrbEvol %A John T.

My paper "The Evolution of the Kerberos Authentication Service" and the slides for it are now available by automatic mail-based retrieval from Athena's archive server. send mail to 'archive-server@athena-dist.mit.edu' with a subject of "index krb-doc"; this will return the index of the documentation. You may then request documents by sending commands like "send krb-doc krb_evol.ps.1" (for part 1 of the paper). If you need further help using the archive server, send a command "help" and it will respond with information on its commands. John

For those of you who don't have PostScript printers with the New Century Schoolbook fonts, you might wish to pick up a text version of "The Evolution of the Kerberos Authentication Service", to be found as /pub/kerberos/doc/krb_evol.lpt [It's also available as 'send krb-doc krb_evol.lpt' from our mail-based archive server (archive-server@athena-dist.mit.edu), but I wouldn't count on it getting transmitted completely correctly, as it has escape sequences in it.] This file is NROFF output, so you probably want to filter it with "colcrt" to make it readable on your screen, or use 'col' to process it for printing (with 'col', watch out for subscripts overwriting subsequent lines, though...). You'll also note that the PIC figures are just put in as PIC source code. Sorry, but NROFF doesn't know squat from PIC. John
