Kerberos

First you should ensure that you have a working installation of kerberos. If you can choose the implementation, prefer heimdal (for the moment mit-krb5 won't work). Make your /etc/krb5.conf looks like  http://tools.assembla.com/netsoul/browser/kopetesoul/trunk/tests_kerberos/krb5.conf.heimdal or  http://tools.assembla.com/netsoul/browser/kopetesoul/trunk/tests_kerberos/krb5.conf.mit depending on your client.

Then do 

kinit login_l; klist

if it works then you're ready for the next step.

How to build

tar -xvjf kopetesoul-x.y.tar.bz2
