gserver status

[Gaspar, Carson]

gserver is currently non-functional in cvs 1.12.13, as it frequently
hangs. There is a patch at
http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=14506
(gssapi-et-all-051002.patch) that fixes the problem in our testing. The
only issue we've seen with the patch is that it assumes the existence of
GSS_C_NT_USER_NAME. Adding an autoconf test for that and substituting
GSS_C_NULL_OID in src/srerver.c if it doesn't exist makes this patch
pass our tests on Solaris 8, Solaris 10, RedHat 7.3 and RHEL4 U4.

What can we do to help get this patch included in the next release?
