Thread: New drivers released

I've pushed out a new set of driver releases to get out the fixes that
have accumulated.  Downloads and changelog are available in the usual
place.

What needs to happen to get the GSSAPI/Krb5 support added into the
official releases?

    Thanks!

At this point I think it just needs some additional configuration options
added to it.  We need something equivalent to PGKRBSRVNAME and an option
to configure the application name that is looked up in the login
configuration file.  That's pretty straightforward, so official GSSAPI
support will be included in the 8.4 driver series.

I have committed the gssapi code with these additional configuration
options to CVS.  A section should be added to the documentation describing
what the login configuration file should contain, but I haven't gotten to
that yet.
