<p>There are a number of options to configure which you can use to
control how the Kerberos distribution is built.</p>
<div class="section" id="most-commonly-used-options">
<h2>Most commonly used options<a class="headerlink" href="#most-commonly-used-options" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<dl class="docutils">
<dt><strong>-</strong><strong>-help</strong></dt>
<dd>Provides help to configure. This will list the set of commonly
used options for building Kerberos.</dd>
<dt><strong>-</strong><strong>-prefix=</strong><em>PREFIX</em></dt>
<dd>By default, Kerberos will install the package’s files rooted at
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">/usr/local</span></tt>. If you desire to place the binaries into the
directory <em>PREFIX</em>, use this option.</dd>
<dt><strong>-</strong><strong>-exec-prefix=</strong><em>EXECPREFIX</em></dt>
<dd>This option allows one to separate the architecture independent
programs from the host-dependent files (configuration files,
manual pages). Use this option to install architecture-dependent
programs in <em>EXECPREFIX</em>. The default location is the value of
specified by <strong>-</strong><strong>-prefix</strong> option.</dd>
<dt><strong>-</strong><strong>-localstatedir=</strong><em>LOCALSTATEDIR</em></dt>
<dd>This option sets the directory for locally modifiable
single-machine data. In Kerberos, this mostly is useful for
setting a location for the KDC data files, as they will be
installed in <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">LOCALSTATEDIR/krb5kdc</span></tt>, which is by default
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">PREFIX/var/krb5kdc</span></tt>.</dd>
<dt><strong>-</strong><strong>-with-netlib</strong>[=<em>libs</em>]</dt>
<dd>Allows for suppression of or replacement of network libraries. By
default, Kerberos V5 configuration will look for <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-lnsl</span></tt> and
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-lsocket</span></tt>. If your operating system has a broken resolver
library or fails to pass the tests in <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">src/tests/resolv</span></tt>, you
will need to use this option.</dd>
<dt><strong>-</strong><strong>-with-tcl=</strong><em>TCLPATH</em></dt>
<dd>Some of the unit-tests in the build tree rely upon using a program
in Tcl. The directory specified by <em>TCLPATH</em> specifies where the
Tcl header file (TCLPATH/include/tcl.h) as well as where the Tcl
library (TCLPATH/lib) should be found.</dd>
<dt><strong>-</strong><strong>-enable-dns-for-realm</strong></dt>
<dd>Enable the use of DNS to look up a host’s Kerberos realm,
if the information is not provided in
<a class="reference internal" href="../admin/conf_files/krb5_conf.html#krb5-conf-5"><em>krb5.conf</em></a>. See <a class="reference internal" href="../admin/realm_config.html#mapping-hostnames"><em>Mapping hostnames onto Kerberos realms</em></a>
for information about using DNS to determine the default realm.
DNS lookups for realm names are disabled by default.</dd>
<dt><strong>-</strong><strong>-with-system-et</strong></dt>
<dd><p class="first">Use an installed version of the error-table (et) support software,
the compile_et program, the com_err.h header file and the com_err
library. If these are not in the default locations, you may wish
to specify <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">CPPFLAGS=-I/some/dir</span></tt> and
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">LDFLAGS=-L/some/other/dir</span></tt> options at configuration time as
well.</p>
<p class="last">If this option is not given, a version supplied with the Kerberos
sources will be built and installed along with the rest of the
Kerberos tree, for Kerberos applications to link against.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>-</strong><strong>-with-system-ss</strong></dt>
<dd><p class="first">Use an installed version of the subsystem command-line interface
software, the mk_cmds program, the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ss/ss.h</span></tt> header file and the
ss library. If these are not in the default locations, you may
wish to specify <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">CPPFLAGS=-I/some/dir</span></tt> and
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">LDFLAGS=-L/some/other/dir</span></tt> options at configuration time as
well. See also the <strong>SS_LIB</strong> option.</p>
<p class="last">If this option is not given, the ss library supplied with the
Kerberos sources will be compiled and linked into those programs
that need it; it will not be installed separately.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>-</strong><strong>-with-system-db</strong></dt>
<dd><p class="first">Use an installed version of the Berkeley DB package, which must
provide an API compatible with version 1.85. This option is
unsupported and untested. In particular, we do not know if the
database-rename code used in the dumpfile load operation will
behave properly.</p>
<p class="last">If this option is not given, a version supplied with the Kerberos
sources will be built and installed. (We are not updating this
version at this time because of licensing issues with newer
versions that we haven’t investigated sufficiently yet.)</p>
