Stanislav Sedov ae77177087 - Update FreeBSD Heimdal distribution to version 1.5.1. This also brings
several new kerberos related libraries and applications to FreeBSD:
  o kgetcred(1) allows one to manually get a ticket for a particular service.
  o kf(1) securily forwards ticket to another host through an authenticated
    and encrypted stream.
  o kcc(1) is an umbrella program around klist(1), kswitch(1), kgetcred(1)
    and other user kerberos operations. klist and kswitch are just symlinks
    to kcc(1) now.
  o kswitch(1) allows you to easily switch between kerberos credentials if
    you're running KCM.
  o hxtool(1) is a certificate management tool to use with PKINIT.
  o string2key(1) maps a password into key.
  o kdigest(8) is a userland tool to access the KDC's digest interface.
  o kimpersonate(8) creates a "fake" ticket for a service.

  We also now install manpages for some lirbaries that were not installed
  before, libheimntlm and libhx509.

- The new HEIMDAL version no longer supports Kerberos 4.  All users are
  recommended to switch to Kerberos 5.

- Weak ciphers are now disabled by default.  To enable DES support (used
  by telnet(8)), use "allow_weak_crypto" option in krb5.conf.

- libtelnet, pam_ksu and pam_krb5 are now compiled with error on warnings
  disabled due to the function they use (krb5_get_err_text(3)) being
  deprecated.  I plan to work on this next.

- Heimdal's KDC now require sqlite to operate.  We use the bundled version
  and install it as libheimsqlite.  If some other FreeBSD components will
  require it in the future we can rename it to libbsdsqlite and use for these
  components as well.

- This is not a latest Heimdal version, the new one was released while I was
  working on the update.  I will update it to 1.5.2 soon, as it fixes some
  important bugs and security issues.

.Sh NAME
.Nm su
.Nd substitute user identity
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm su
.Op Fl K | Fl Fl no-kerberos
.Op Fl f
.Op Fl l | Fl Fl full
.Op Fl m
.Oo Fl i Ar instance \*(Ba Xo
.Fl Fl instance= Ns Ar instance
.Xc
.Oc
.Oo Fl c Ar command \*(Ba Xo
.Fl Fl command= Ns Ar command
.Xc
.Oc
.Op Ar login Op Ar "shell arguments"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm su
will use Kerberos authentication provided that an instance for the
user wanting to change effective UID is present in a file named
.Pa .k5login
in the target user id's home directory
.Pp
A special case exists where
.Ql root Ap s
.Pa ~/.k5login
needs to contain an entry for:
.Ql user Ns / Ns Ao instance Ac Ns @ Ns REALM
for
.Nm su
to succed (where
.Aq instance
is
.Ql root
unless changed with
.Fl i ) .
.Pp
In the absence of either an entry for current user in said file or
other problems like missing
.Ql host/hostname@REALM
keys in the system's
keytab, or user typing the wrong password,
.Nm su
will fall back to traditional
.Pa /etc/passwd
authentication.
.Pp
When using
.Pa /etc/passwd
authentication,
.Nm su
allows
.Ql root
access only to members of the group
.Ql wheel ,
or to any user (with knowledge of the
.Ql root
password) if that group
does not exist, or has no members.
.Pp
The options are as follows:
.Bl -item -width Ds
.It
.Fl K ,
.Fl Fl no-kerberos
don't use Kerberos.
.It
.Fl f
don't read .cshrc.
.It
.Fl l ,
.Fl Fl full
simulate full login.
.It
.Fl m
leave environment unmodified.
.It
.Fl i Ar instance ,
.Fl Fl instance= Ns Ar instance
root instance to use.
.It
.Fl c Ar command ,
.Fl Fl command= Ns Ar command
command to execute.
