VMS Help V73 Features, Associated Products Features, Kerberos for OpenVMS  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    Kerberos Version 1.0 for OpenVMS Alpha and OpenVMS VAX, based on
    MIT Kerberos Version 5 Release 1.0.5, is included on the OpenVMS
    Version 7.3 distribution media. (Kerberos documentation provided
    by MIT is included on the OpenVMS documentation CD-ROM in HTML
    format.)

    Kerberos is a network authentication protocol designed to provide
    strong authentication for client/server applications by using
    secret-key cryptography.

    Kerberos was created by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
    as a solution to network security problems. The Kerberos
    protocol uses strong cryptography so that a client can prove its
    identity to a server (and vice versa) across an insecure network
    connection. After a client and server have used Kerberos to prove
    their identity, they can also encrypt all of their communications
    to assure privacy and data integrity.

    General information about Kerberos is available from the
    following World Wide Web address:
