Updated text: 9) Can I compile PostgreSQL with Kerberos v5 support? Kerberos is integrated in OpenSolaris and will be integrated in Solaris 10u4. Kerberos v5 support is implemented by the GSS security libary which contains Kerberos v5 functions. However, the library is private and the interface might change without notice. -- Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +

I think I need to just add "Yes," to the first sentence. -- Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +

Would you like a krb5.h file for Solaris 9-10 that will allow you to "break into" the "hidden" library? Also S10u4 won't be out until this summer. I'd say the answer is currently "no". It's known by Sun that Postgres will compile against their Kerberos libraries though.
