Mac OS X Kerberos Extras Installer

About the Mac OS X Kerberos Extras Installer Sources

To help other sites create an installer for the Mac OS X Kerberos Extras, we are providing the source files used to create the installer for public distribution. This source is nearly identical to the installer distributed by MIT .

If you are part of the MIT community, you should use the pre-built MIT installer, which can be found here.

Mac OS X Kerberos Extras Installer Source Documentation

The installer source is fully documented in the Mac OS X Kerberos Extras Installer Documentation.

Please also read Mac OS X Kerberos Extras Installer Customization Requirements & Tips.

Getting the Mac OS X Kerberos Extras Installer Source

The Mac OS X Kerberos Extras installer was created with Mindvision Installer VISE 8.0.2, and you will need that version or later. (Definitely upgrade to 8.0.2, it fixes lots of bugs under Mac OS X 10.2.)

You can get the Mac OS X Kerberos Extras Installer Source here.

The source includes:

KFM OS X Extras.vct - the Installer VISE source archive

BinariesForInstaller - the Mac OS X Kerberos Extras binaries in the layout the installer expects; all you need to do is replace the edu.mit.Kerberos file and rebuild!

Documentation - folder containing the following files:

KfM OS X Extras Read Me - the read me displayed by the installer

osxke-installer-about.html, osxke-installer-doc.html, osxke-installer-customize.html - copies of these web pages for reference

ExternalCodeResources - folder containing the source and compiled binaries for the code resources used by the installer:

KfMLocations - folder containing the source and compiled binaries for the KfMLocations custom install resource; see the documentation for more details
