     Kerberos is finally out.  Now there's something that can be
done about passwords in the clear, the vast holes in NFS, and such.
See below.

The first public release of the Kerberos Authentication System is ready
for retrieval.  Initial distribution (this week) will be by anonymous
FTP; eventually 9-track tapes will be available.

To retrieve the distribution, ftp to ATHENA-DIST.MIT.EDU (18.71.0.38),
login as anonymous (password whatever you like, usu. your
username@host), then cd to pub/kerberos.

Retrieve README.ftp, it has directions on how to get to the rest of the
software.
