Mark Murray 03656ac1b0 Initial import of KTH eBones. This has been cleaned up to only include
the "core" Kerberos functionality. The rest of the userland will get their
own changes later.

People from the MIT Athena project wrote the original code that this is
based on. @w{Kerberos 4} @w{patch-level 9} was stripped of both the
encryption functions and the calls to them. This was exported from the
US as the ``Bones'' release. Eric Young put back the calls and hooked
in his libdes, thereby creating the ``eBones'' release.

The ``rcmd'' programs where initially developed at the University of
California at Berkeley and then hacked on by the FreeBSD and NetBSD
projects.
Berkeley also wrote @code{ftp}, @code{ftpd}, @code{telnet}, and
@code{telnetd}. The authentication and encryption code of @code{telnet}
and @code{telnetd} was added by David Borman (then of Cray Research,
Inc). The encryption code was removed when this was exported and then
added back by Juha Eskelinen, @code{<esc@@magic.fi>}.
The @code{popper} was also a Berkeley program initially.
The @code{login} has the same origins but has received code written by
Wietse Venema at Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands.
@code{movemail} was (at least partially) written by Jonathan Kamens,
@code{<jik@@security.ov.com>}, and is Copyright @copyright{} 1986, 1991,
1992, 1993, 1994 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
@code{xnlock} was originally written by Dan Heller in 1985 for sunview.
The X version was written by him in 1990.
Some of the functions in @file{libroken} also come from Berkeley by the
way of NetBSD/FreeBSD.
The code to handle the dynamic loading of the AFS module for AIX is
copyright @copyright{} 1992 HELIOS Software GmbH 30159 Hannover,
Germany.
@code{editline} was written by Simmule Turner and Rich Salz.

Ian Marsh @code{<ianm@@sics.se>} removed the worst abuses of the English
language from this text.
Ilja Hallberg @code{<iha@@incolumitas.se>} is still promising to help us
finish the documentation.
This work was supported in part by SUNET and the Centre for Parallel
Computers at KTH.
The port to Windows 95/NT was supported by the Computer Council at KTH
and done by Jörgen Karlsson @code{<d93-jka@@nada.kth.se>}.
All the bugs were introduced by ourselves.
