Just a small update on rxk5.
Tonight I hope to post a patch for of rxk5 m46+.
This will include a revised tokens interface
similar to that proposed in ``rxgk-client-integration''.
[ Currently we're using "coordinated" ioctl#'s
6,7,8 for VIOC_GETCAPABILITES,VIOC_GETTOKNEW,VIOC_SETTOKNEW.
I'll pick something else instead that's not coordinated
unless I hear something back positive about this. ]
Possible near-term work for rxk5 after this includes:
* windows: distributable kerberos integration for rxk5
* "secure cache manager" security mechanism improvements
to better address issues including
"OpenAFS Security Advisory 2007-001".
* solaris kernel kerberos integration
I'll post more detailed notes on what I propose
for the "secure cache manager" improvement tonight also.
