Jordan, I believe I attached a patch to the email; it appears to work correctly here, as it just adds a -lcrypt to the kadmin Makefile. When you say back out the K4 changes, do you mean pull out on the KTH upgrade for 2.2.6? A better course of action would probably be to fix the Makefile. A number of libraries and include files have changed in KTH, and are now in fact in a *standard* place unlike previous versions of FreeBSD :). So many more things compile cleanly under KTH that it seems extremely worthwhile. :) The old Kerberos was also quite broken for multi-homed hosts due to a bug in the kerberos client libraries. I believe the new libraries actually function correctly in that environment, which is quite a plus :). Putting in -lcrypt seems a reasonable fix; it certainly breaks nothing, regardless of the code freeze. Of course, you have no doubt heard *that* one before.
