Dear Cyrus and NetBSDers,

Sorry for this off topic question.

Does anyone have cyrus working under NetBSD-1.4 using Kerberos IV?
Or is every one using local passwords?

I'm having trouble getting past the testing section relative to Kerberos
and would appreciate pointers, hints or private e-mail to get this up.

TIA
